Does cranberry juice effect medication i am taking statins and blood pressure tablets?
There is evidence to suggest it might, by similar mechanism of grapefruit juice. In other words, it might adjust the speed at which the liver can metabolize the drug (increase or decrease) leading to potentially higher or lower blood levels of the drug than intended by the dose.
I've not found a lot of literature on this topic, but it would be wise to use caution over drinking cranberry juice while taking medications. I'd suggest talking to your doctor and pharmacist.

Can cranberry juice get rid of a bladder infection without perscribed medication?
That is what some sites claim. It did not work for me, if what I did counts. I took high quality cranberry supplement tablets. They did nothing. That UTI/bladder infection was the sickest I ever remember being, at home. I had a very high fever, and a strong antibiotic finally got rid of the infection. Cranberry juice is delicious and healthful, but don't mess with bladder infections. It's a step away from some serious kidney involvement.
