Coarctation of aorta is one of correctable causes of hypertension. Consult your cardiologist to find out whether you are eligible for an angioplasty i.e aortoplasty in your case or a corrective surgery for coarctation. Once you are cured of coarctation your blood pressure and the medication requirement for hypertension will come down surely.
