Hi, Thanks for posting in Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. We should never start the BP medication right after first reading your diastolic BP 110 its abnormal as per your age. Still we can wait for 1 week if you don't have symptoms like headache .all day heavy head feeling. We should start medication.like Selma 20 mg for this we have to see your creatinine levels. If you are not an asthma person we can start on stable 5 mg and these are prescribed Chat Doctor. .without the test done we can't start this medication otherwise the diet plan which you had started, and your regular exercise might decrease the B. P without any medication Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
