I have been having pinom20 for my BP for past 3 years (prior to that I was having listril 2.5 for 15 yrs). now i find my BP has again risen to 140/80 levels. Do I need to increase the dosage or change the medication? Or do I need to see a cardiologist?

Consult a cardiologist for review of medications. Also start with lifestyle changes like - 1) daily brisk walking, begin gradually and then increase to 40-45 mins daily 2) Avoid high salt rich food like chips, namkeens, pickles, sauce, chutney. 3) Quit smoking and drinking if you do 4) Eat a heart healthy diet.
