In my opinion beta blockers alone as first line treatment for hypertension are not the best choice unless you tend to have an overactive sympathetic nervous system with rapid resting heart rate or coronary artery disease. Your options would be to add a low dose of a longacting diuretic or an ACE inhibitor like lisinopril or add amlodopine to keep BP 130/80 or lower.. Discuss with your MD.
