[|Human|] 2 days back my mother suffered a 220/136 level of BP.She has been taking BP medicine(amlopres 5 mg) for the past one year but had not had such a high BP level ever(last high was 180/100 4 months back).Plz suggest what could be the possible reason behind this ?
[|AI|]  HiT hanks for your query. Based on your query, my opinion is 1. Uncontrolled hypertension can be due to undetected high lipid/ cholesterol levels/ being irregular on medications/ sedentary lifestyle/ unhealthy dietary habits.2. In your mothers case, it needs to be controlled immediately with additional medications as high blood pressures can cause serious cardiovascular and cerebral complications.3. Once it is controlled, the cause for not responding be evaluated and necessary measures taken.4. She needs to make lifestyle modifications along with taking regular medications.5. If you have not checked her sugars, get it done to rule out diabetes mellitus as diabetes can complicate pressures due to vascular complications. Hope this helps. Regards
