    Yes medications have potential side effects, but HBP meds have been around for decades, are well studied and shown to be preferable versus the known outcomes of untreated hypertension.

    Hypertension will fuck you up way more than taking an additional medication will. On the topic od the liver, It actually causes new blood vessels to be made to circumvent the liver which leads to more waste in bloodstream not being filtered out.

      But that also doesn’t sound like a good thing

        Oh yeah sorry, was not trying to present the process as positive…blood should not be circumventing the liver.
