Midodrine

Midodrine is a medication that helps raise blood pressure in people who experience low blood pressure, especially when standing up (a condition called orthostatic hypotension). It works by constricting blood vessels, which increases blood flow and stabilizes blood pressure. This can reduce dizziness, lightheadedness, and the risk of fainting, improving daily functioning for affected individuals. Midodrine is typically prescribed under medical supervision and used as part of a broader treatment plan for managing blood pressure issues related to nerve or blood vessel problems.
