You can stop the medication and monitor the BP. I suspect it will stay normal. If it does increase, you can restart the medication. Usually a little variation is expected however if consistently goes > 130/90, you can restart the medications.

sure, but continue to measure BP only once every month on fixed dates after resting for 10 minutes. Restart medicine if it again stays high
