Hello,

Welcome to ehealthforum

High Blood Pressure can be controlled by medications and lifestyle modification.If the blood pressure is continuously high then definitely you would require medications.
Have healthy nutritious low salt diet.
Go for a walk daily.
Reduce smoking as it is a contributor for increasing BP.
Consider visiting a Physician for examination so that you can be prescribed the treatment accordingly.

Take Care!
