He said that this much of rise is not good. he had given me Amlovas 5/25. At times bp rises to 140/90 . I exercise around 5 times a day. Trying to get down my weight. Reducing weight will help me with bp problem, Or can i get rid of medicines? wht should be the ideal weight i should have, height is 5 feet 11 inches and at present weight is 82 kgs.? please guide.
Hello, thanks for posting a question on our site. Your ideal weight is around 65 -81 kg. At 82\u00a0kg it is good enough. From my experience with patients that were overweight/ obese, they reduced 5-8 mmHg after losing significant weight. Some of them were able to live without Chat Doctor.  I advise that even after losing weight and having a reduced blood pressure, consult your physician before stopping blood pressure medication to avoid with
