I'm currently dealing with a blood pressure reading of 160110 and have started taking telmicertan at 40mg. I'm really worried and wondering how long it might take for my BP to return to normal levels. Could you shed some light on this for me?

I've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure, and I recently got a reading of 121 over 68. I know that typically the lower number should be around 80, so I'm a little concerned. I'm a 23-year-old guy, and I'm wondering if I should be worried about that lower number being 68. Could you give me some insight into whether this is normal or if I should be doing something about it?

A diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 68 mmHg is actually considered within the normal range, as the American Heart Association defines normal DBP as less than 80 mmHg, and a DBP between 60-79 mmHg is generally associated with better cardiovascular health, so your reading of 12168 mmHg is considered normal for a healthy 23-year-old male.
