Antihypertensives

Antihypertensives are medications used to lower high blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other health problems. They work in different ways, such as relaxing blood vessels, reducing the workload on the heart, or removing excess salt and water from the body. There are various types, including diuretics, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, and calcium channel blockers. Your doctor chooses the right medication based on your health needs. Proper management of blood pressure with these medicines can help maintain overall health and prevent serious complications.
