Start pranayama and meditation atleast for 45 min daily early morning . Take ayurvedic medication in support ,so that you can withdraw some allopathic medication.

Please consult in the OPD with good physician or adut. Cardiologist. Never a medicine must be added or switched without proper clinical exam. Your BP is responding but HR high for age. It should have gone down. You might be having few extra beats.

Yes valsartan can be used in the place of telmisartan.
It's available in strengths of 80 mg /160 mg.
I recommend 80 mg to start with.

If you are afe below 40 metoprolol is very effective. Age over 60 you can try higher dose amlodipine if bp uncontrolled.

Probably too strong medicine. Full effect of amlodipine will come after 30 days, your BP may become below 100 next month due to too much medicine. Suggest stop medicine. Measure BP only once every month on fixed date after resting for ten minutes, start medicines if BP 160 on 2 occasions, or if always above 140.

Very unlikely the cause may be by amlodipine, rather change your daily lifestyle like drinking adequate water daily, no or less junks, more of fibers and less carb diets. That will help you a lot. Also get one physician consultation regarding hypertension any change of dosages/ compositions.

Little bit difference. Side effects like swelling over legs is less with S-Amlodipine, Also efficacy is little superior of S-Amlodipine but if her BP is controlled with Amlodipine you can continue with that.

You can take both together in combination at the same time and record your bp and pulse rate so that any alteration can be done if required.

High bp is a hereditary disease for which there is no cure. Obesity, diet are just the triggers they are not the actual cause of high bp. If you control the triggers you might be able to get rid of the medicines for some time but not forever. You have to be on medication at the end. Do not hesitate to take medicines if they are necessary. Because if your bp remains high then it will damage your body many times more than side effects of medicines.
