Those numbers can be very dangerous, you could suffer a heart attack or stroke, according to the NIH. You need to see a doctor immediately, so they can evaluate you and prescribe an appropriate medication, if they feel one, or more, are necessary.
Are you currently taking any medications regularly?
How often has your blood pressure been this high?
Do you have any diagnosed medical conditions?
