My father is about 59 year old. He is the patient of high blood pressure. He was taking the medicine telma 40 but a year ago my father blood pressure was fluctuating then doctor recommended him to take the telma 80 instead of telma 40 on regular basis. Right now I just want to know that can he reduce his dose from again from telma 80 to telma 40? Please advise.

Your father should not change any medicine without doctor's advice. It maybe harmful and can lead to other complications. But we have to look into the details of the problem. Let's have a detailed discussion for better advice and medication plan.
