From last few days my father's BP reading is coming around 185/50 - 188/44. At present he is taking Concor Plus and Tazloc 80. What can be done now? Please suggest if we need to increase the dose or change medication.

Please don’t waste your time in free online consultations As blood pressure of your father is extremely high and can create complications. Kindly consult your treating cardiologist or at least physician
