BP's 140 over 75. Is that normal?

Normal systolic blood pressure should be between 89~139mmHg, diastolic blood pressure between 60~89mmHg, so systolic blood pressure 140mmHg is abnormal, diastolic blood pressure 75mmHg is normal. If the systolic blood pressure is 140mmHg for three non-same-day measurements, hypertension can be diagnosed. Blood pressure should be controlled by daily life management and drug treatment to reduce the damage of hypertension to target organs.
