Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Controlling BP with herbal medicines is not an authentic and scientific way. Antihypertensive Medicines as prescribed by your physician along with life style management like regular physical exercise, yoga and meditation, low salt intake and a balanced diet prescribed by a dietitian is the best known way for controlling high BP. You should not worry about the side effects of the medicines, your physician will prescribe the best considering your case.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
