Hi Riffnazz, I'm sorry that you are wrestling with high bp at such a young age.How long have you been taking these meds? They take a time to work to their full capacity as your body adjusts to them.What are you taking anyway? I'm sure your doctor will want to review how it is going and if that particular combo doesn't work there are alot of others to try.

Hello and welcome to the forum!
You say two or three tablets a day which is puzzling. Either missing a tablet or adding a supplement (unless approved by your doctor) could jeopardise achieving a stable and healthy BP.
As you are only 25 can onne assume you are a healthy weight and exercise regularly? What medications are you on?
I would keep date and time record of your blood pressure and after a week or two make an appointment to see you're GP and take your blood pressure record with you and discuss it with him or her.
Are you a healthy weight? More importantly are you carrying excess weight around the waist? Do you exercise regularly? Do you eat healthily?
As suggested, measure your own BP morning and afternoon at the same time, for a week, in proper relaxed surroundings. If they were done at a surgery they may have been rushed or you may have 'white coat' syndrome.
Just wondering whether you are taking your own blood pressure and if so, what type of devuce you are using.. Are you sitting relaxed when taking it? There are various recommendations on how you record your BP, most suggesting an average of three readings. The instructions with your monitor should guide you through this.
If the readings you are getting have been taken at your GP surgery, I wonder whether you have clinical hypertension, often referred to as "white coat syndrome". I suffer from this and have agreed with my GP that all my readings are taken at home. The accuracy of my BP monitor was checked against the monitors at the practice.
Hi Riffnazz, sorry to hear about your BP. Try finding root cause of your hypertension. Is it physical or psychological?
Try addressing the root cause ( it's important), as BP medicines only control symptoms not cause of problem, meanwhile maintain healthy life style and relax hopefully things will get better with time.
Cardio exercises 30-45 mins, controlled sugar, low salt Mediterranean diet & low tensions + good sleep can have really huge impact on lowering BP.
Another thing get an accurate BP monitor & check your bp once or twice a day to maintain record.
Good luck 👍🏻
