Query on medicine dosage in hypertension

Question

Asked for Female, 41 Years

I am taking Dilzem CD 120 morning and telma 40 at night since one month as my bp was 150/100 last month. But now while I check on the Omron home apparatus bp is 100/70 range most of the time. I will be going to the hospital and check but now for today I am confused whether to take telma 40 at night or should I take only telma 20. Because it shows only 100/70 and sometimes as low as 97/68 I worry it will get too low at night. Hoping to get suggestions on should I reduce dose to telma 20.
