I have high blood pressure and pulse along with chest pain. What to do?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your systolic blood pressure is elevated. Do you smoke? Do you have diabetes? Are you overweight? Some advice to lower BP (blood pressure) is as follows. Stop smoking and paan, etc. Reduce weight, adopt an active lifestyle, do a brisk walk, reduce salt intake in the diet, reduce saturated and trans fat in the diet. Check BP regularly. If after adopting all these, still, BP remains elevated, you may take medication after one month or so. Tablet Lisinopril 10 mg at bed time daily. Make sure your kidney function is normal before starting this medicine. This medicine may cause reduced BP in initial days. So, take it at bed time only. After 15 to 20 days you may switch it to day time. Check BP regularly. I recommend first to make lifestyle modifications. If BP normalizes, then there is no need to take medicine. I hope this helps. Thank you and take care. Regards.
