Fluctuating BP, Done Echo Test And Blood Test. Is Medication Okay?

Hello Respected Doctor, I am 61, male, suffering from fluctuating BP around 165/95. Echo CD shows: IVS Thickness 13mm, LVPW Thicness 13mm. Blood report shows: Sugar 90/131 (fasting & PP), Urea 27, Creatinine 1.04, Cholesterol 146, Triglycerides 92. My Doctor prescribed me Amtas HT ( Amlodipine 5mg+ Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg), Pinom 40 (Olmesartan Medoxomil 40mg), Modlip 10 (Atorvastatin Calcium). My humble question: Are they OK? Is Atorvastatin (Modlip 10) required for the level of my Creatinine 1.04, Cholesterol 146 & Triglycerides 92? Your valuable advice is solicited. Thanks. Sri Debdas Guha from West Bengal.
