Querry regarding blood pressure
Dear Sir,
I am taking high BP medicine since last ten years. Currently taking Arbitel AM(Telmirsatan/Amlodipine-40/5). My average bp range was 130/85 with medicine. But, In summer my bp is in normal range 110/80. So, local Doctor suggest to take only Arbitel 40.
Now, since one week my bp average reading coming 110/65. Due to this currently I am not taking medicine. Is any cause of concern in sudden fall of bp reading. Kindly suggest whether I have to take medicine or not.

you need to keep a check on your bp reading regularly in the right way.
also you might be dehydrated due less water consumption.
