Always take low salt diet walk for 30 min in fresh air review your medications with the doctor every 3-4 months get the BP checks atleast once a month See that the BP should be less than 140/90 as your BP is high now immediately rush to a doctor you need to get the review of medications i think the dose is not exact to you

Hi,Shihongo,
Thanks for query,
Your blood pressure is not under control at all.
It require evaluation for drug schedule.
Dose given is not enough or require to switch on other medicine.
Consult physician and seek advice.
Ok and bye.
