My dad has been suffering from high blood pressure for about a year now. He is at low risk for heart attack because he is very healthy, swimming at the gym every morning 5 days a week (although I’m not sure how good the genetics are). He has noticed just recently that the higher his heart rate is, the lower his blood pressure is. I’m guessing this has something to do with the physiological mechanism behind blood pressure and heart rate, so any additional information about that would be welcome.
My dad has high blood pressure and was prescribed some medication to lower it. He has to keep taking it for as long as his doctor tells him it’s ok to stop but his medication (Tarka) is pretty expensive and sometimes he can’t afford it so he just stops taking it. I worry that something might happen to him when he does this. Does anyone know where I can find Tarka for less (he currently pays for a 30 day supply of Tarka 2/240mg) or do you know of a natural way to lower blood pressure?
