Brief Answer:
unlikely to benefit
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Welcome to hcm.
The garlic has been long believed to be beneficial in high BP and immunity building, and some "Blood purification" mostly by alternative medicine people. Garlic has been studied regarding BP and cholesterol lowering properties and nithing could be substantiated on actual grounds.
So do not stop your BP medicine. If at all you want to try any combination as you have mentioned, better try them as an add on only and in supervision of a qualified physician of your locality.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.
