When my truck is cold the oil pressure is at or above 40 psi but when the truck reaches 200 deg the oil pressure drops around 10-15 psi. What could be wrong?

I don't see any problem here at idle that pressure is okay remember the higher the rpm the higher the pressure the oil pump is turning faster-Might want to change the oil/filter.
