Should I Increase The Dosage Of Tablets For BP Of 160/105?
I'm on high blood pressure medicine but my blood pressure has been running high - it's been around 160 / 105. Can I take an extra pill? Should I go to the emergency room? I feel "ok" but have a funny headache at the base of my skull above my neck.
Yes you definitely have high blood pressure and need to increase the doses of antihypertensive or need to add some antihypertensive drugs.but don't take it by your self. Consult your physician for that. And your headache is due to youf persistenthigh blood pressure. it will go away after your blood pressure go down to the normal level.
