Suggest Treatment For High Blood Pressure In An Elderly Person

I am 76 male. Taking tenoric 50 for last 25years and BP was constant at 120/80. I am diabetic and take Glycomet trio 2/0.3 in the morning and Galvus met 50/1000 in the evening before meals. I take atorva 10mg at bed time. Blood sugar, triglyceride, and cholestoral are within limits. For last 20 days my BP is going up to 165/85. I get a headache when BP goes higher than 140. Would you advise anything more with tenoric 50.
