My blood pressure has been 150/107 mmHg for the past two days. I am taking blood pressure medication, but it is still high. What should I do?

Have a query?

Your blood pressure reading of 150/107 while on medication suggests it is still elevated, so it’s important to take specific steps to manage it effectively.
Keep checking your blood pressure at consistent times daily and maintain a log of your readings to track trends and share with your doctor.
Consult your doctor promptly to review your current BP medication (like Cilacar-M 10/25). Dosage adjustment or additional medicines might be needed to control your blood pressure better.
Focus on reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy diet, regular physical activity, limiting alcohol, and managing stress, as these help support medication effects on blood pressure.
Get emergency help if you experience severe headache, chest pain, shortness of breath, sudden weakness, or vision changes, as these signs indicate dangerously high blood pressure complications.
Schedule a follow-up with your cardiologist or physician within the next few days to reassess your condition and medication response.
If you want, I can explain how these tablets work or more about lifestyle steps.
