High Blood Pressure & Cholesterol Reduction Drugs vs Chinese Herb Formula
Propanolol, acebutolol, and metoprolol are beta blocker drugs. Although they are important drugs for the heart, they have side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, dyspnea, fatigue, dizziness, insomnia, depression, sexual dysfunction, etc.
Lipitor, zocor, pravacol, and mevacor (lovastatin) which are all statin drugs have serious side effects such as rhabdomyolysis (rapid break down of skeletal muslces which may lead to acute kidney failure). The effect is increased if taken together with erythromycin (antibiotic).
Acupuncture & Chinese Herb
Acupuncture is an effective mean to reduce high blood pressure. Luckily,
there are many herbs which reduce blood pressure and cholesterol level. They are hawthorn berries, wolf berries, reishi (mushroom), red rice yeast, etc. These herbs do not interfere with beta blockers and do not reduce its effectiveness.
