A member asked:

Tonight is the first night in the past 3 days that i've had a normal reading (126/76). should i take a dose of medicine tonight?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Good reading: Since this is a normal bp and is your first good reading, I would continue the same antihypertensive regimen. I would only reduce the dose if your bp became too low. Your treating physician is best qualified to answer your question,however.
