There are hundreds of BP meds. Without knowing can’t help much. If a CCB this may be normal in some, if an ACE you may have a kidney problem. Report to your Dr. I assume you failed a trial of the DASH DIET which is recommended for all with HBP and lowers BP BETTER THAN SINGLE DRUGS. But it does not seem to be recommended much down under. Go to Nih.gov and read more.
