Blood Pressure Medications: Stiftung Warentest Warns of Misleading Advertising and Ineffective Naturals

Stiftung Warentest Tests Common Blood Pressure Medications

Stiftung Warentest has evaluated 66 commonly prescribed blood pressure medications. The Verbraucherzentrale NRW warns of misleading advertising promises for natural remedies, and the Herzstiftung cautions against questionable herbal preparations, promoting simple dietary and exercise tips instead.

The Herzstiftung specifically highlights Cardiotonus drops, which are marketed as lowering cholesterol and blood pressure. The organization emphasizes the lack of credible scientific evidence supporting their effectiveness and recommends seeking medical advice from healthcare professionals for appropriate blood pressure management.
