• Consultation Advice: It is important to consult a cardiologist or an internal medicine specialist before switching or starting any new medication. They can ensure the right choice, dosage, and monitor for side effects or interactions.

• Additional Considerations: Alongside medication, lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, limiting salt intake, and monitoring blood pressure regularly are essential for effective hypertension management.
