Hi,

If you are taking Losar H 25 then you need to make it 50, if you are already on 50 then you need to on one more drug like Amlodipine. Combination of three is available as Amlozaar H. So you discuss with local doctor. Also, You should have a healthy lifestyle like avoiding fatty, oily and high calorie diet.

Have low salt diet and monitor blood pressure regularly thrice a day for one week then once or twice a week. Regular exercises like brisk walking, jogging according your capacity at least 30 min a day and 5 days a week.

Eat lots of green leafy vegetables, fruits, fish once or twice a week, avoid meat. Avoid smoking and alcohol if any. There shouldn't abdominal fat deposition or obesity. Get your lipid profile and sugars tested once.

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

Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
