[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Along with salt restriction in diet, you should also start aerobic exercise like running, cycling, swimming etc. This will also helpful in reducing high blood pressure. You are taking the lowest dose of telmisartan. You can increase the dose to 20 mg twice daily after consulting your doctor. Ideal dose of telmisartan is 40 mg in a day. So you can increase the dose to achieve control. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
