Brief Answer:
Diuretic to be added early in the morning...
Detailed Answer:
Hi back,
Thank you for providing the requested information.
To my opinion, a diuretic should be added early in the morning to reduce your morning blood pressure.
Have you measured your heart rates? Perhaps, you might also need to add a beta-blocker too.
Discuss this further with your doctor!
