Normal blood pressure for an adult is 120/80.
But not everyone have the exact same BP ,it is a constantly changing parameter.
so basically BP below 140/90 is considered normal.
The drug you've mentioned is Telmisartan which is a good BP lowering drug,but despite of taking that drug BP is not controlled so you need to consult a physician who may add or change the drug.
