I used to take 2 tablets a day one in the morning one in the evening and now I stopped taking medicine after the above reading ,I check 3 times a day and never reached 80 below reading.

Make an appointment witb your doctor to discuss. High BP meds are prescribed long term, not to take in response to high bp usually. If youve changed your diet, your exercise habits then that's great, but your dr needs to reevaluate the big picture. I am not a doctor.

Nothing wrong with those readings at all. Stopping all BP medicine is rarely a good idea. BP tends to spike. I am not a doctor.

Best thing to do is ask your doctor because there are many deciding factors when it comes to blood pressure readings.
