My doctor prescribed coversyl 2mg for hypertension 140/95 2 weeks later 150/100-160/110 doctor prescribed 4mg coversyl and ativan (lorazepam) now 150/100

Low dose thus far: The 2-4mg coversyl is relatively low dosing for hypertension and so it seems your physician is going for a gradual build-up. Don't be surprised if a second blood pressure medication is added. Blood pressure control can be accomplished somewhat gradually (ok unless you're having symptoms or adverse effects and immediate control is needed).

HTN Rx: I always recommend the DASH eating plan ISBN: 0-7434-1007-6 eISBN-13: 978-1-43914-059-8 Get this book only. Do Chap 9 EXACTLY and expect BP to be going own in 1 week. Be prepared to back off other meds so talk to Dr. If this does not help get back with us for second opinion.
