[|Human|] Sir,I am 31 yrs and for almost 3 months I have noticed my BP 140/100 and sometimes it comes to 120/90 ,presently its 140/100 .Doc has prescribed amlopres-5 .Will this control in later stage or do I have to continue medicine life long.Thanks in advance,Regards,Prashant.
[|AI|]  Hello Prashant, as you are young firstly all secondary causes of hypertension should be ruled out.  After that lifestyle modifications like cutting salt in diet, exercise, losing weight should be at priority.  Presently ISO believe you should continue with the meds and what with time if BP normalize we may slowly titrate down the dose.  Sudden stopping would increase the pressure again Lastly I think for you an ace inhibitors /ARB with chlorthalidone, would be a better antihypertensive than empress considering long term protection of the heart and kidney by the above medication as compared to.  So discuss it with your doctor.  Regards Chat Doctor.
