Brief Answer:
please explain further

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

what do you mean by '60/70'? Are you talking about the diastolic blood pressure? What about the systolic blood pressure?

It is true that a successful regimen should not be changed but I'm sure your doctor wouldn't have changed the regimen if everything was perfect, so please give me more details.

Kind Regards!
