A blood pressure reading of 150/80 mmHg is still elevated. Since your reading is high while taking Telma 40 (telmisartan), lowering your dose is not recommended, as it could cause your blood pressure to rise even further. Instead, you may need a dosage adjustment or a different treatment plan to safely bring it down to your target range. Please do not alter your medication on your own. I highly recommend sharing these readings with your doctor so they can safely guide you.

My blood pressure is 150/80 while taking Telma 40; is this the correct dose for me, or should I switch to a lower dose?
