Hello,
If you are on simvastatin then may be you have elevated bad cholesterol levels in your body or as you are a hypertensive ( have high B.P) to protect you from bad effects of B.p you doctor must have started you on simvastatin , and "No" B.p medication will not cause fatty liver. The reason for your fatty liver could be ( either your elevated cholesterol levels, sugar levels, thyroid levels, alcohol), if your are not evaluated for these , please kindly consult your doctor and get examined and tested. Hope I could help you.
Thank you.
