Your ECG shows that you may have had high blood pressure for sometime and may not have known about it. This is an important finding in your case.
*Your medications for blood pressure is fine
*With your blood glucose levels, your target blood pressure will be to get it to less than 130/70 mm Hg
*Also have blood tests done for Renal function tests and Lipid profile every 6 months
*Have Urine test for microscopy and Urine Albumin-creatinine ratio every year
*If you have not had eye check in the last year-have retina checked
*If you have not had feet sensation checked in the last year-have it checked
The way doctors assess these days is we want to reduce risk of heart attacks and stroke. So rather than just focus on blood pressure all other things also need to be done.
*Finally life style changes and regular exercise
All the best.

He has LVH due to long standing hypertension. HbA1c is also borderline high.
Instead of deplat A, I would suggest to give ecosprin 75mg.
Repeat HDL test.
After taking meds, how much is his b.p. and blood sugar, then I can help you with meds.

Hello,
The prescription seems okay.
Deplatt AV is indicated due to high BP, diabetes and age.
Also ECG showing LVH is because of high BP.

• BP is uncontrolled (155–170/90–100) with ECG-LVH → long-standing hypertension.
• Current management is broadly appropriate, but BP control must be tighter.
Next Steps
• Telmisartan 40 mg → good choice; may need dose increase or add CCB (Amlodipine) if BP not
Health Tips
• Target BP
