BP high only in clinical settings

Question

Asked for Male, 29 Years

Hi, I have my blood pressure elevated (150/85) only in clinical settings like doctors office, hospital when I go for tests. I have an electronic machine at home and it is always fairly normal at home (around 116/80). I have taken readings in different times of the day and on every alternate day. Why so? My GP has prescribed me Ciplar 10 (Dosage 1-1-1) Is it required? Would not my BP be less if its normal range and I still take the medication? I am worried about the side effects.
