Hypertension is a multifactorial disorder and it does not depend only on your weight. Multiple physiological components are involved in the regulation of your blood pressure. But yes, if you loose weight, there are chances that the blood pressure will be better controlled with less number of drugs, or maybe they may no longer be needed. Nothing is guaranteed.
