A member asked:

Are there any good meds for both high cholesterol and hypertension?

Yes: The only restriction for hypertension is salt. The best treatment for high cholesterol is to maintain normal body weight and avoid animal fat, emphasizing fruits and vegetables. That's good for high blood pressure too. Keep your body mass index 18-25 and go lightly on meat, follow a dash diet:see http://dashdiet.Org/.

Caduet: Caduet combines a cholesterol lowering agent with a blood pressure lowering agent in the same tablet. Ask your doctor is this medicine is a good fit for you.
