Hello,
Your blood pressure specially systolic pressure is high and is commonly seen in old age due to arteries getting stiff.
There is nothing to worry because proper medications and slight reduction n salt intake should make you all right.
Since you must be taking other medicines also,it is advised that you consult your GP or even a cardiologist for prescription.
Thanks
