Dear Mrs,
If your medication controlls well your blood pressure, then you should continue the same medication with the same dose unless there are side effects. We have patients who take the same medications for years and are doing well.
Also, I would recommend you to follow healthy lifestyle, sometimes lifestyle changes can help to better control blood pressure and decrease medication's dose.
Hope I could help you
Wishing you good health
