If taking Telmi put your BP in range, you would say it fixed your blood pressure. See what I’m saying?

Disagree. That's like saying someone has a weak grip that gives out on deadlifts so they use straps. They didn't fix their grip. Or has shoulder pain so takes decades to lift pain free, they didn't fix their shoulder they just masked the negativity affects.

That’s a false comparison. A blood pressure medication actually fixes their blood pressure. Straps don’t fix their grip strength.

If you can't deadlift 600lbs because you can't grip it, then use straps to pull it then take the straps off and you can no longer pull 600lbs
You take telmisartan and your blood pressure goes into normal range then you come off telmisartan and your blood pressure goes back up out of range.
Neither the straps nor the telmisartan FIXED the original problems

Disagree. Losing weight or lifestyle changes would fix the bp. That's like saying insulin fixes diabetes. In the absence of drug, the underlying issue is still there.

If it gets it in range then it by definition fixes your blood pressure, but yes it does not fix the core issues causing it to be high. Same way insulin can fix your blood glucose levels but is not fixing the issue causing it (diabetes).

This is really pedantic and not worth arguing about anyways, though.
