I'm a senior citizen, was told in the past month I have High Blood pressure my medication
Lisinopril 20mg 2 daily
Toprol XL 50mg 1 daily


?

My pulse rate has come down quite a bit, my Blood pressure has come down a little
In my limited knowledge, I thought when the heart didn't pump as hard creating a fast pulse rate, my blood pressure would come down more than it has.

I've been taking medication for a month. About how long will it take to bring blood pressure down to a reasonable level.

Thanks for you reply.

Add some mild exercise--walk 4-8 blocks twice a day or ride an exercise bike for 15 minutes. etc. Watch your sugar and fat intake, and eat lots of fruits and vegetables.

Give it another month.
