Lots of option: There are many meds to treat high blood pressure. Not all of them are appropriate for everyone so it's important to see your doctor to discuss this. You're too young to have high blood pressure so your doctor should figure out why it's high in you.

HBP at age 18: Hypertension in a 18 year male is abnormal. It may due to secondary causes (s). Factors to be evaluated are: a coarctation of the aorta, conn"s syndrome and a renal artery stenosis, among others. See a nephrologist (n) to have these ruled out. If s is ruled out it's best to see a n to treat your hypertension. Reduce any risk factors such as obesity and cigarette smoking. Good luck.
