Hello and welcome to HCM,
The dose of the anti-hypertensive drug may have to be changed for the desirable effects to appear.
However, do not increase or decrease the dosage of anti-hypertensive drug that you are taking.
Moreover the drug and its response should be monitored by your treating doctor itself.
The response to anti-hypertensive depends on several factors like duration for which the drug is taken, time for the response to develop, etc.
Thus, consult your treating doctor for further management.
Thanks and take care
