Brief Answer:
Blood pressure too for a client on medications!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I have taken a look at your values. The blood pressure is too low for a client on medications for high blood pressure. I will like to have an idea on what your regular blood pressure values have often been before. The rapid heart rate is also of concern to me.

While awaiting details about your regular blood pressure numbers, I have a strong feeling that your medications have lowered the blood numbers to concerning levels. This is dangerous as it can lead to dizziness, fatigue, fall and all its associated consequences. I may want to see the dosages of these medications reduced to have blood pressure numbers at least greater than 120/80mmHg.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and do feel free to ask for ore information and clarifications if need be.
