Much better would be to eliminate the high blood pressure. Most high blood pressure, at least in UK and its former colonies (US particularly included), is a product of uric acid poisoning, itself caused mainly by the massive excess of sugar pumped into stuff sold as if it were food. (Excess alcohol has identical effect.) Cut stuff with sugar added from your diet, and take up exercise, and your blood pressure comes down. Excess uric acid also causes most type-2 diabetes.
