If your blood pressure remains high despite taking S Numlo 5 Tablet (S-amlodipine), it may suggest that the medication alone is not enough. Please consult your doctor, as they may need to adjust your dose, add another antihypertensive medicine, or investigate other contributing factors. Monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow the diet and lifestyle measures as advised.
