And please understand each patient has a different response to different medication, which is best judged by the treating cardiologist, so kindly consult a cardiologist and follow their advice 2) Please do not measure your BP too frequently once in a fortnight by a doctor is enough. 3) Begin with daily 40 mins of exercise, diet modification for BP control detailed diet plan suggested by a dietitian, quit smoking and drinking, if you are overweight focus on weight loss with diet and exercise plan, check your BP levels after 6 weeks of following these precautions daily and working on your anxiety reduction, if it is still high consult a cardiologist for prescription of anti-hypertensive and then follow up with them.
