[|AI|]  Hello, I as it was started just recently and the normal pressure are because of the medication, so stopping it suddenly will push it up further than before.  The best way is to still continue it for a month or two, get the pressure in the range of 110-120 and then decreasing the dose to 20 mg Writer. At the same time cut down salt in diet, continue sports, achieve ideal body weight and maybe with time slowly we will be able to titrate you off the meds completely.  However, as a cardiologist, I would strictly warn you against sudden stopping of meds, as within a week or so your pressure will come back higher than before and apart from risk of heart attack, stroke due to high pressure, long term the dose e of meds required will be high.
