Hi everyone. Ive just started statins, and wondering whether they can actually reduce blood pressure too ? I'm on lercanidipine and candesartan and gp wants me to increase candesartan to 32 mg which is the maximum but that dose can damage kidneys. So Id like to carry on with 16 mg and see if the statin ( rosuvastatin ) can make a difference . Does anyone else have experience of this ?
