For a hypertensive on medication,130/80 is a target BP goal.If your BP remain above 130/80 constantly, consider adding a second medicine from a different class,or increase the present telmisartan dosage.

No extra medication is needed.. little bit of fluctuation can be seen here and there.. for accurate information try to measure your bp three times a day with note of it for 7 days.. you will get more accurate idea regarding it

BP of 130/80 on Telmisartan 40 mg is slightly high but not alarming.
Monitor BP regularly (morning & evening for a week).
Limit salt, caffeine, and stress; exercise helps.
Don't adjust meds yourself—consult your doctor if BP stays high.
