In such a situation, you should consult a doctor to modify the treatment.
Your blood pressure of 97/70 mmHg is indeed quite low, especially if you are taking a blood pressure lowering drug such as Elstar (olmesartan medoxomil + amlodipine). Such pressure can be considered hypotension, i.e. too low blood pressure. Heart rate of 80 beats per minute is normal and does not cause concern.
Do not change the dosage of the drug yourself without consulting your doctor. Reducing the dose to half may be considered, but this decision should be made by a specialist.
Please remember that too low a pressure can cause dizziness, fainting and general weakness. Therefore, it is important for your doctor to assess your current health condition and tailor the treatment to your individual needs. If you are not able to make a face-to-face visit, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:

At GdziePoLek you can reserve prescription preparations, but you have to pick them up stationary after presenting a prescription:
