1. There is a wide variety of anti hypertensive drugs available today and the choice will depens upon:
. The tolerance of the patient to the drug,i.e. how the patient responds and the side effects.
. The individual choice of the doctor.
. The cost of the therapy - what the patient can afford.
2. In middle aged hypertensive patient, beta blockers are the first line drugs but side effect include: dry cough, supress libido ( erectile dysfunction), broncho spasm.
3. If your blood pressure is not controlled with the highest dose of drug, combine either with a calcium channel blocker or an ACE inhibitor.
4. Since you have a long history of high blood pressure, thus:
. Check with Lipid profile
. Stress test and if necessary coronary angiography.
. Check urine for micro albuminuria.
