POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally
and appropriately, short term. Several small studies have used the
powdered bark of Terminalia arjuna safely in cardiac patients
in trials lasting from 2 weeks to 3 months; however, patients should
avoid self-treatment with this product, due to the potentially
significant cardiovascular effects. end quote from:
http://www.amazondiscovery.com/Arjuna.html?gclid=CL234e31jboCFYaDQgod9hUARw#Arjuna
However, it also says: begin quote: "
Orally, Terminalia arjuna is used for cardiovascular conditions, including ischemic heart disease and angina, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. It is also used orally as a diuretic, for earaches, dysentery, venereal and urogenital diseases, and as an aphrodisiac." end quote also from:
http://www.amazondiscovery.com/Arjuna.html?gclid=CL234e31jboCFYaDQgod9hUARw#Arjuna
Also, it mentions that Terminalia Arjuna has been used for thousands of years for the treatment of heart problems by Auryuvedic practitioners in India.
So, likely self treatment might not be the best idea. So, what I would likely do is to consult with an Auryuvedic practitioner here in the U.S. that you trust that has enough training to feel comfortable with. Also, I'm not sure about how it might react with other heart medicines like Lisinopril or Coreg.
My interest in this is because I cannot take Coreg and so my son is concerned I might pass on within 5 or 10 years if I don't take Coreg. (He has a BS in Nursing from a California state university and was an honor student.) However, my experience with Coreg is I'm not rational when I use it and because I'm 6 foot 5 inches tall I would rather have quality of life than worry about what I might do if I'm not rational. Without quality of life why live at all? So, for me, I am looking for an alternative to Coreg that might work better. A whole lot of people are taking Lisinopril like me but cannot take Coreg either. Another drug I find I cannot take is Lipitor because one of the potential side affects is muscle wasting which I started to get when I took Lipitor. So I can't take that one either. So, I'm looking for an herbal medicine to extend my life and good health as long as possible. And Terminalia Arjuna is one of those good possibilities that has already been used successfully for thousands of years in India already.
It is grown in India and Sri lanka and is a tree.
Terminalia arjuna, commonly known as arjuna[1] or arjun tree in English,[2] Thella Maddi in Telugu and Marudha Maram in Tamil is a tree of the genus Terminalia.
The arjuna was introduced into Ayurveda as a treatment for heart disease by Vagbhata (c. 7th century CE).[4] It is traditionally prepared as a milk decoction.[4] In the Ashtānga Hridayam, Vagbhata mentions arjuna in the treatment of wounds, hemorrhages and ulcers, applied topically as a powder.[4]

Herbal treatment for heart disease in offing?
The answer to the treatment and management of chronic heart failure may
lie in Aurveda, say AIIMS doctors. A multi-disciplinary team of
cardiologists and pharmacologists at the premier institute are
investigating to scientifically prove the efficacy of capsule containing
the stem bark of terminalia arjuna - a medicinal plant used by
Ayurvedic physicians since ages - to treating the disease as. The animal
trials and pre-clinical safety trials on human beings have been
completed successfully and the result of human trials, which is under
process, is encouraging, the doctors said.
"Human trials have been on more than 20, mild to moderate, heart failure patients after taking due consent and required permission. Till date, we have not found any serious side effect," said a doctor involved with the project. He said that total 100 such patients will be reviewed over the to see the effect of this herbal medicine. In this randomized trial, the heart failure patients coming for treatment are divided into two subgroups and administered the capsules containing the herbal medicine or placebo without telling them. The improvement or side-effects are then studied on routine basis.
