Hi,
You are having severe hypertension. So more than one medicine will be necessary for controlling it. Exforge HCT contains Amlodipine, Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide (3 drug combination) which is very effective in controlling your high blood pressure. Usually it will get controlled well in one week time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
