Your blood pressure is improving, but it is still slightly above the goal of 140 over 90 mmHg. Do not change or stop your medicines on your own, even if your cholesterol is normal. Please consult your doctor, who may adjust the dose or treatment to help you reach a safer long-term blood pressure target.

  1. Medication Adjustment:

    • Your blood pressure has improved but remains slightly high. Consult your doctor about possibly adjusting the Telmisartan dose or adding another medication.

  2. Cholesterol Management:

    • Continue Atorvastatin as your cholesterol levels are normal. Follow your doctor's advice for any changes.

  3. Lifestyle Factors:

    • Implement lifestyle changes: balanced diet, regular exercise, reduced salt intake, and stress management to aid blood pressure control.

  4. Regular Monitoring:

    • Keep monitoring your blood pressure and follow up with your healthcare provider to evaluate treatment effectiveness.

  5. Consult Your Doctor:

    • Do not alter or stop medications without consulting your doctor. Report any symptoms like dizziness or unusual fatigue promptly.
