How To Control Bp Of 179/85 Level?

My BP is high 179/85 but my heart beat is too slow so my dosage has been changed to 25mg twice a day. I was getting dizzy and nauseated so the dosage was changed. It does not seem to help my bp so I would like to quit it altogether. I am 73 female and except for the BP in good health

Hi!
I had gone through your query and understand your concern.
In order to help you I need to know what medications are you taking to control your blood pressure.
If you are taking only one medication that can be a b-blocker like Atenolol or another drug of this class I would suggest so add another drug in your treatment in order to control your blood pressure.
I need to know what are you taking to treat your high BP and than I can tell what medication you need to add to your treatment.

Waiting for your answer.
Take care.
