Your BP is definitely on the higher side, but don’t panic in many young patients this can be brought under good control with the right evaluation and proper medication adjustment 👍 Since it’s staying elevated despite treatment, a detailed consultation would help identify the exact reason and manage it correctly. You can book a consultation, I’ll guide you step by step.

​"A blood pressure reading of 168/102 mmHg while on dual therapy (Amlodipine + Telmisartan) is classified as Uncontrolled Hypertension. The fact that your BP remains high despite medication, combined with symptoms like headache and head spinning (vertigo), is a concern. This could indicate 'Resistant Hypertension' or 'Secondary Hypertension,' where an underlying issue—like kidney dysfunction, a salt-heavy diet, or high stress—is preventing the medicine from working effectively."
Next Steps
To review your reports, check for secondary causes, and finalize a safe 3-drug regimen to prevent a hypertensive emergency, please book a full consultation session via my Practo profile."
