Blood pressure
My nephew is 35 years old . Born by pre mature delivery in 7 months. He is mentally challenged and bed ridden.
We noticed his blood pressure is high 180/120 for long Time (at least 3 years ,we noticed)
Is this his normal range or he should be given medicines to bring it down.

This is high BP. He does need medication. Before the medication he needs to be evaluated to look for the cause of the hypertension .
He definitely needs medication to bring it down.
