Please go for a review with the doctor (sometimes it important to go for review and monitor the situation till it gets better ). You can discuss about your father's lifestyle and try to implement healthy lifestyle changes. Read more about it from the internet and adapt the good habits (especially adapt healthy diet and exercise ). If needed your doctor will change the medicine and observe for the body to respond.
