Detailed answer
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Your blood pressure readings are really very high and very dangerous as it could lead to any catastrophe any time.
Doubling the dose of BENICAR is not going to help you.
Must go to ER immediately to get your blood pressure stabilised.
Once stabilised, then you would need a revised schedule of anti hypertensive medicines.
I hope it helps, however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
