I have a brother that has high blood pressure. We have been able to bring the Diastolic under control (80) but the Systolic is still 189 he takes a medication called Lisinopril. What else can I do to bring the Systolic down? He doesn t want to go to the Emergency He is on dialysis and has neuropathy in his hand and feet.

Hi,

Please add tab. Amlodipine to Lisinopril.

Your blood pressure will be controlled. Wait for one week and see the result.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
