Avoid spicy,oily food.
Eat healthy vegetables and fruits.
Avoid smoking if you smoke and restrict alcohol intake.

You need to reduce your weight by doing physical exercises and with dietary changes.
Restrict salt intake.
Eat healthy food.
Brisk walk for 30 minutes and some physical exercises are most important.
Once you start changes in your life style then I would suggest you check you Blood pressure continuously for 5 days at your local hospital to know fluctuations in BP. If you have high BP for five days then you need to switch over to one more anti hypertensive medication as I mentioned earlier.
