Blood pressure medication cannot be stopped of a sudden. You must regularly moniter your blood pressure levels and taper the dose of medication if indicated under the guidance of the physician only.
If your problem persists consider consulting a homoeopathic physician for better and faster results. Both medications must be used simultaneously for some time. Later depending on your improvement levels we can taper the dose of tablets you are using under the guidance of the doctor you are consulting now.
Next Steps
Alcohol decreases the action of medication. so try getting rid of that habit.
