Arrow High Blood Pressure - which medicine???

I'm Ana Paula Espada from Portugal.

My husband is doing well regarding CBC - all values above minim except Platelets that has been a little lower but without falling (142-145)

His CyA is 160 mg/day (80+80).
Creatinine values are normal.

Since November his blood pressure has been raising - diastolic never lower than 100 or 110 while sistolic is around 140-150.
At last my husband talked to his doctor at Porto (he didn't want to take more medication).
Since we live far away from Porto, his doctor there told my husband to have an appointment with the Dr. Here...

This last doctor "didn't find" a blood pressure medication that didn't interact with CyA (I'm quoting him).
Then he prescribed Indapamida which I find in a group of medication that is described as been associated with Aplastic Anemia.

That's why I need your help since we need an opinion about not only this medication but what can be the most secure blood pressure medication to my husband.

Thank you very much in advance
