This isn't necessary true. I recommend to go to your doctor and change the therapy because you are taking 2 ARB (olmesartan or concor and valsartan or exforge) wich isn’t necessary. Your blood pressure obiective should be 130/85 mmHg and for this you should take the pills in maximal dossis also should ad other groups of medications.
