Hypertension which is under control after medications is not a contraindication for CoViD vaccination.
Do continue your medicines. Are there any other medicines apart from Antihypertensives.
If no, then you may proceed for the vaccine.
Next Steps
Tell the attending physician at the vaccination site about your BP and medicine. They may check your BP on spot and decide accordingly.
