I have high blood pressure, and I am taking Sartel H 80 once daily and Amlong 10 twice daily, but my blood pressure is still not controlled. What should I do?
High blood pressure may remain uncontrolled even while taking Sartel-H 80 and Amlong 10 because of stress, excess salt intake, poor sleep, weight gain, lack of exercise, smoking, alcohol, kidney problems, or progression of hypertension over time. Irregular medicine timing and missed doses can also affect blood pressure control significantly. A detailed review is important because uncontrolled blood pressure may increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and eye problems if it continues for a long period. Your doctor may need to check kidney function, heart health, salt intake, sleep quality, and blood pressure patterns before deciding whether treatment adjustment is needed. Reducing salt, packaged foods, fried foods, smoking, and alcohol may help improve blood pressure gradually. Regular walking, stress reduction, proper sleep, hydration, and maintaining a healthy weight may also support better control naturally. Checking blood pressure at fixed times and keeping a record may help identify patterns. Seek medical advice soon if blood pressure remains very high or if you develop chest pain, severe headache, breathlessness, dizziness, or blurred vision.
