High Blood Pressure
Hi,
My 58 year old mother is having high BP in the range of 157/93 to 164/104 ( a week back it was 180/102). She was taking a homeopathy medicine to reduce it. But it is remaining in the range 153/93 to 164/104. Yesterday, she had mild shortness of breath. Please suggest some good medicines to reduce it.
Thanks
Saroja

Her BP is very high.
180/102 : can cause brain hemorrhage (paralysis) and cause pressure on the heart (left ventricle failure) and fluid retention in lungs.
This is an emergency. Please do not wait . seek proper consult and start medicines to control blood pressure urgently.
