A 59-yeаr-оld mаle with а histоry оf HTN, HFpEF, and CKD was sent to the emergency department from his PCP office for high blood pressure. His blood pressure on arrival to the ED is 225/136. He normally takes hydrochlorothiazide 50 mg daily, losartan 100 mg daily, and amlodipine 10 mg daily but admits that he ran out of his medications about a week ago. He denies chest pain, shortness of breath, headache, confusion, or visual changes. His labs are unremarkable except for an elevated creatinine to 1.4 which reflects his baseline. What is the next BEST step in management?
