Probably wouldn't be so great for a person like me, with very LOW blood pressure though.

175/110 ??? Is that correct? That is considered high!

I currently take benicar HCT for high bp. It has been keeping it under control (110/ 70s). I wonder if I should consider ask my pcp to consider switching?

Hi Barb,

120/80 is normal. I get 110/75 with the BP meds. Did I write 175/110? I'm such a dork, I got that all reversed, ROFL...
