Yep..see a Dr asap..Usually the nurses run a blood pressure health check regular clinic..he may possibly be prescribed Statins and anti-hypertensive meds..but he needs to do some of the work himself..tabs don`t do it all...Get healthy dietary advice,cut out/down on high fat foods/sweets/sugar and some carbs.Exercise is vital..increase but check with your Dr.first as may advise only gentle exercise to start with if B/P is much too high...Try and cut down on stress..not easy in this hectic pace world!..But maybe some changes will reduce stress levels..Keep appointments to get B/P regularly checked!
Good Luck.

He should go to a different Dr. if his Dr. is the one who's keeping him on the same pills that don't help his high BP . If he hasn't been to a Dr., make him to go one ,or take him to E.R. .In the mean time, tell him you will walk with him.Go out and walk briskly 2X per day. Cook him unsalted meals .Let him use salt substitute if he wants.Get him to quit smoking and / or drinking, if that is the case. Good luck. Let us know how it turns out.
