It's hard to find a circulatory system drug that doesn't have side
effects. You just have to experiment. I use a beta blocker
(atenolol), not primarily for HBP but for arrythmia but a very small
dose takes 10 points off BP. Only side effect is vivid dreams, not too
bad...;-)

Incidentally, the cholesterol theory of heart disease is pretty well
discredited these days. The cholesterol may actually be part of the
body's repair process for arteries damaged by unknown processes. Check
