Hello,
Telmisartan is a very good drug for hypertension which is widely used by doctors. So if your brother is maintaining well on this, I would not suggest to change it. Meanwhile, he should do some regular exercise or yoga, avoid high salt diet like pickle to control hypertension.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Prashant Gohil
