Detailed Answer:

Hi,

BP number of 182/120mm Hg is high. In this situation, I will recommend taking second dose of Telma 20mg now. She should be monitoring her BP regularly. Dose and treatment of hypertension needs to be altered based on BP pattern.

Hope this answered your question. Let me know if you need clarifications.
