Fight Hypertension

SIN ONE: Beta blockers:

There is widespread use of beta-blockers in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. This drug is the management of cardiac function by controlling the heart rate. In other words, the drug reduced the number of heart beats in one minute. The drug works on the surface of the heart itself. It has two two stretches of the reduction in blood pressure. First, minimizing or preventing nerve impulses from getting to the heart. This reduces the price, the strength and the volume of blood pumped from the heart, thus the amount of force on the arteries.

Beta blockers also help keep blood vessels open (extended). This eases stress on the heart

side effects of beta blockers are insomnia, cold hands and feet, fatigue and depression.

Stopping these medications can cause symptoms such as asthma, decrease good cholesterol and an increased heart rate.

common beta-blockers

? Propranolol (Inderal)

? Nadolol (Corgard)

? Metoprolol (Lopressor)

? Timolol (Blocarden)

someone beta-blocker-blockers are better received counseling for stress reduction, learning breathing exercises and relaxing music listening

SIN TWO: WATER PILLS /diuretics

The main function of diuretics is to increase the formation of urine. These drugs remove fluid and salt from the body, the blood drops, the band makes it easier, through the arteries thus decreasing blood pressure.

The biggest problem with diuretics is that they do not tell the difference between things that are good for the body and things that are bad. What happens with this type of drug is that you lose important nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, vitamin C, you need to on a daily basis.

SIDE EFFECTS:

? Muscle pain

? Cramps

shared name

? Diuril

? Lasix

? Aldactone

SIN THREE: Calcium channel blockers

This type of medication is in the treatment of high blood pressure caused by the "Close" (tone) of smooth muscles in the walls of blood vessels. Calcium-blockers prevent the flow of calcium into the smooth muscle to prevent

contraction of smooth muscles of blood vessel wall to prevent constriction of blood vessels.

This type of blood pressure medication is slowing down the impulses to the heart for pumping, therefore, the heart is relaxed.

Side Effects:

? Allergic reactions

? Anxiety

? Blurred vision

? Breathing Difficulty

? Chest pain

? Depression

? Drowsiness

? Dry mouth

? Fatigue

? Fever

? Headaches

Common Drugs:

The calcium channel blocker Dilate Blood Vessels

? DynaCirc Cr

? Norvasc

? Plendil

? Procardia XL

? Sular

SIN FOUR: ACE inhibitors

angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors), preventing the formation of angiotensin II, a chemical that causes blood vessels to reduce. ACE inhibitors may be blood vessels to relax and stay wide open, blood can move freely and easily without resistance minimal.

ACE inhibitors also the release of an adrenal hormone aldosterone. Aldosterone promotes sodium and salt retention.

Side effects:

? Anxiety

? Blurred vision

? Chest pain

? Cough

? Dry Eyes

? Dry mouth

? Diarrhea

? Dizziness

? Fatigue

? Fever

? G.I bleeding or pain

? Headaches

? Nosebleeds

? Bleeding gums common

ACE inhibitors

? Prazosin (Mini-Press)

? Doxazosin (Cardura)

? Aceon

? Altace

? Capote

? Lotensin

? Mavik

? Prinivil

? Vasotec

? Zestril

SIN 5: ALPHA RECEPTOR

alpha blockers blockers decrease the nerve impulses to blood vessels, preventing the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels to contract. It relaxes the blood vessels and allows blood to move freely and easily through the body.

Side Effects:

? First dip in blood pressure causing dizziness

? Abdominal cramps

? Allergic reactions

? Anxiety

? Blurred vision

? Confusion

? Constipation

? Convulsions

? Depression

? Dreams

? Dry mouth

? Diarrhea

? Dizziness

? Headaches

? Hyperglycemia

? Hypertension

*** Long-term use of alpha blockers can cause heart failure !!!***
