A blood pressure reading of 135 over 85 mmHg is only mildly elevated and may not require starting a new tablet if you are otherwise well. Continue any prescribed medicines and focus on lifestyle measures such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and engaging in regular exercise. Do not start any new blood pressure medication without consulting your doctor.
