welcome to hcm ...usually bp becomes resistant and needs two or three drugs to be given .
usually drugs as tab telmisartan 40 mg once a day plus tab chlorthalidone once a day are prescribed by me at 150/110
in addition to these i advise morning or evening walk
cutting on smoking alcohal and salty fried foods
meditation or other relaxation techniques
if the bp does not fall with 2 or 3 drugs even after 1 week then i will recommend kidney functionbtrsts as blood urea ...serum creatinine etc
