Dear sir
If you want to control blood pressure in the safe range. First you should know these things
1. What is the safe range for the specified age
2. How to control blood pressure throughout the day and night.
As the age advances the target blood pressure will be relaxed, so ideally it should be below 140/90 mm of hg
Secondly if you are taking two are more drugs for blood pressure, make sure that you split into two doses one in the morning and one in the night so that by adding a drug in the night, it has an advantage of controlling the blood pressure at the night too.
Thanks
