HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, Tab parazosin is not the right drug for hypertension if this is not responding, it is not advisable to treat the hypertension on your own, better to see the physician because chances of error is very likely if you go reading blood pressure of your own, ideally you need to see the physician, if you go on taking dosage of drug erratically then consequences would be bad, hope this information helps, take care.
