Well, with blood pressure that high, you have to do something to try and bring it down, the 180 is dangerous territory and can create the risk of a heart attack, stroke or congestive heart failure.
The Calcicard contains the active ingredient Diltiazem, which is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions.
It may cause side effects, such as: nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach pain.

Tozaar contains the active ingredient Losartan, which is an ARB, mainly used to treat the same conditions and it can cause similar side effects.

How long have you been taking the Tozaar, now?
Using it with the Calcicard can help them both to lower your blood pressure more, but it will take around 4 to 6 weeks, before it reaches its full effectiveness in the body.
