Hello, thanks for the query.
Bp 170/80 mm hg is showing very high systolic bp. This should be around 130 mm hg. It is clear that taking only telmisartan 40 mg, is not sufficient. There has to be another drug added for better control of the systolic pressure. So it is better to consult her physician and get a specific prescription. There are many options available. In this communication we are supposed to give only general guidelines, no prescriptions can be given. Thanks.
