My blood pressure medication was changed very recently. I've been on the new pills - Losartan for 10 days now.
So why are my readings still on the high side?!
I've taken two readings today, both when I was relaxed and resting - the first at midday was 167/105 and the second at 2.45pm (to check if I'd got an inaccurate result) was 161/96
I obviously need to give it another week or so but surely they should be lowering my BP by now?
I'm taking 1 pill daily (12.5mg).
