My brother is 18 and we've discovered that he has high blood pressure readings around 14070 or sometimes 15070. We've done a bunch of tests like ECG, EKG, ultrasound, renal Doppler, TSH, echo, and urine metanephrine serum tests, and they all came back normal. The doctor mentioned something about essential hypertension and started him on amlong 2.5mg. But since that didn't help, his dose was bumped up to 5mg. I just got a BP monitor, and his readings were 13078 in the morning and 14770 in the evening. I'm seriously concerned because he's so young and is managing to exercise regularly with a healthy BMI. What could be causing this, and how can we help lower his BP?
It's good that your brother has been proactive in monitoring his blood pressure and leading a healthy lifestyle. Despite these measures, essential hypertension can sometimes be challenging to control. Since the morning blood pressure reading is within a normal range, it's important to continue monitoring at different times of the day. In cases where blood pressure remains elevated, the dosage of the medication may need to be adjusted further. I recommend discussing with the doctor about potentially increasing the dose of Amlong to 7.5mg or exploring other medication options such as Telma (Telmisartan) 40mg. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also help in managing blood pressure levels. Regular follow-ups with the doctor for monitoring and adjustments are essential in managing hypertension effectively."

I've been on Nebicard 5 mg for about three years and I'm also taking Ciplar, Serta, and Etizola for anxiety and panic attacks as my psychiatrist prescribed. I have mild MVP and I'm really concerned about whether taking Nebicard and Ciplar together might cause any problems. Plus, I'm experiencing random episodes of excessive sweating. Could this be linked to my MVP or is it just part of my anxiety? I'm worried and would appreciate any insight you might have.
