Hi,
You have good systolic blood pressure already, your diastolic blood pressure is 90 mm Hg, which is not bad, it is borderline.
For further reduction I would advise you rather lifestyle changes than add a medication.
Try to exercise much, lose weight if you are overweight eat healthy food and eat low sodium food.
Take care
Come back if you have any further questions
