At the end of the 2019 Dr. told me that my blood pressure is high and started taking medicines olmesar 20 and now taking olmesar 10. At that time my mother was not feeling well so I was stressed with that thinking day and night so I guess I might have got hypertension from that time only.in middle I tried to stopped taking medications in may 2020 coz I don’t wanted to take medication too early, but rising of b.p made me to take olmesar 10 again. I visited a dietician 2 months back and suggested me to loose my weight from 94 kgs to 84 kgs. Following a diet of salad 2 times a day, eggs in morning and chicken at night and has said to replace jowar bhakri instead of bhakri following with exercise and said to avoid all the junk food and also high intake sugar products. I just think my that I don’t want to take medications for bp so early at the age of 21 and want to stop this. Can I get rid of medication?

High bp is a hereditary disease for which there is no cure. Obesity, diet are just the triggers they are not the actual cause of high bp. If you control the triggers you might be able to get rid of the medicines for some time but not forever. You have to be on medication at the end. Do not hesitate to take medicines if they are necessary. Because if your bp remains high then it will damage your body many times more than side effects of medicines.
