The recent research concerning high blood pressure treatment held in California, USA, proved that the popular cholesterol-lowering drugs statins also lowers blood pressure. The author of the study is Dr. Beatrice Golomb.
In the previous researches it was evidently shown that in most patients statins prevents strokes and heart attacks.

High blood pressure typically produces no symptoms but can lead to serious health problems. These problems may include including heart failure, stroke or heart attack and even kidney failure.
The scientists from the University of California, San Diego, have made an experiment: gave patients two different types of statins. As a result they observed modest but fast declines in top and bottom blood pressure readings.
In his recent interview, Dr. Beatrice Golomb states that it is clear they make a consistent but modest improvement. This means that the benefits of statins in preventing strokes and heart attacks now can be scientifically explained.
Golomb told to our journalists that it took one month of treatment before the effect of both statins began to appear.
