High blood pressure
I am 36 years old and weight is 78kg.But cholesterol is normal(tested 15days before). Yesterday l checked my blood pressure and I was shocked to see that the BP is 100/150. Should I start medication immediately?Most of the my known people is saying that if once I started medication ,so I have to continue it for lifetime.Is it true?I am very afraid of it.Is there any other way to normalise my BP without medication?Noted that,I have been taking antifungal medicine (Drugzole 100 and Levin tablets from 21 days and also have to take it for 1week.Please advice me.Thanks...
With only one reading you can never decide about treatment . .BP might have increased due to many reasons..
If your sleep is not proper at night. If you are in stress or tensions, or if you are not taking enough fluids.. or it can be also be because you have a family history of high BP..
So just relax and monitor your bp for three days after considering the above points I mentioned.. still all the three days reading is on the higher side then consult online..
