Asked by Female, 49 · 4 days ago
A blood pressure reading of 140/100 is considered high blood pressure (Hypertension). The exact dose can vary depending on your blood pressure levels and overall health, so it is important to follow your doctor's instructions and monitor your BP regularly. Along with medication, reducing salt intake, managing stress, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy weight can help control blood pressure.
