Josh-
Was interested in your question because I also have hypertension and was considering Adrafinil, which is supposed to raise dopamine levels. Dopamine is injected as a life-saving procedure to raise blood pressure. However, the doctor told me that dopamine levels in the brain and dopamine in the body have different functions, and he was correct. Adrafinil did not raise my blood pressure. Incidentally, ACE-inhibitors have controlled my BP much better than calcium blockers.
Bring on the salt-
