Hi Charlotte,
Lowering high blood pressure successfully often means combining medication. However, the more medications the greater your risk for side effects and drug interactions, which is why you want to weigh the pros/cons with your physician to determine the appropriate approach for you. Your pharmacist would be a good resource to discuss the potential drug interactions.
All the best,
