Preparations for the normalization of blood pressure

Normal blood pressure characterizes the good condition of the cardiovascular system and the body as a whole, and its changes may indicate the presence of various pathologies. Moreover, the greater the difference in relation to normal indicators, the more significant and dangerous the level of the disease.

The initial stages of the disease can be treated with mild commonly available home remedies, but serious changes will require medical attention. At the moment, there is a wide range of drugs that can be used for various changes in blood pressure.

Comprehensive treatment of blood pressure disorders

To fully stabilize blood pressure, it is not enough just to use the medicines chosen by the doctor. Fluctuations in this indicator are just a symptom of the presence of a serious problem in the body, which is the root cause of the disease. Your doctor will give you a list of drugs that can be used for your condition, but in many ways you will have to deal with the cause of the disease yourself.

This is due to the fact that violations in the work of the cardiovascular system directly depend on several factors at once:

1. Heredity.
2. Wrong way of life.
3. Violations of the daily routine.
4. Excessive and unbalanced nutrition.
5. The presence of bad habits.
6. Lack of physical activity.

The name of the drug will be indicated to us by the doctor, heredity is a given that we cannot change, but the rest can and should be fought

First of all, you need to get rid of smoking, drinking alcohol, coffee, strong tea, overeating and the desire to eat fatty, fried, spicy and artificial foods, switch to a healthier and properly organized diet, in case of hypertension, give up excess salt. You will also have to cancel some medications and drugs, the use of which can destabilize the indicators.

Walking, swimming and moderate sports, the correct, measured rhythm of life, the absence of stressful situations and a clear daily routine with a sufficient period of rest and sleep will benefit. All this should help the action of the pressure pill.

Means to increase blood pressure

Medicines that normalize low blood pressure are present on the pharmaceutical market in a rather limited amount. Meanwhile, low blood pressure gives the patient no less unpleasant minutes than too high.

If the patient's condition is not critical, it is possible to use drugs in tablet form to stabilize health, but only after obtaining the doctor's approval. It must be remembered that at low pressure, its sharp rises can provoke conditions that are undesirable for the health of the human body.

Currently, the following medications are used for hypotension:

• Ekdisten. The basis of this drug is an extract from the medicinal plant Leuzea safflower. It grows in Siberia and Altai, where it is widely used in folk medicine under the name "maral root". This tool not only gently raises and stabilizes blood pressure, but also strengthens the immune system, stimulates the body, gives vigor and relieves nervousness. In case of an overdose, overexcitation and insomnia, sleep disturbances are possible.

• Rantarine is a tablet form of reindeer antler extract, a well-known remedy for low blood pressure. It is obtained from neo-ossified horns - antlers, which contain powerful biologically active stimulants that are beneficial to the human body. In the form of tablets, it is more pleasant to take the drug, since the alcohol tincture has a specific taste.
• Gutron or Midodrine relieves asthenic conditions and improves the health of patients with even severe forms of hypotension.
• Citramon is a well-known analgesic, but it can also be used for low blood pressure accompanied by a severe headache. Its pressure-raising action is based on the presence of a large amount of pure caffeine in the preparation.

All these drugs, which can be used for hypotension, arterial hypotension and asthenic conditions, can provoke allergic reactions, in case of overdose they contribute to insomnia, increased irritability, even aggressiveness. When used correctly, such substances not only have an effect that increases blood pressure, but also stimulate the entire body, reduce fragility and vascular permeability, and strengthen the immune system.

Drugs for arterial hypertension

There are many more drugs that help normalize high blood pressure than increase it.

All of them can be divided into several large groups:

• Diuretics (diuretics). They remove excess fluid in the urine, the pressure on the walls of the vessels decreases and the patient feels relieved.
• Beta blockers. These substances are aimed at reducing the number of contractions of the heart muscle. Because of this, the amount of blood ejection is slightly reduced, lowering the pressure. Nowadays, they are increasingly being replaced by other means, since such pressure pills have a large number of contraindications and side effects.
• Alpha-blockers act by blocking receptors in the walls of blood vessels. They expand, the lumen increases, and the blood circulates freely through them, reducing pressure.
• calcium channel blockers. They prevent the accumulation of calcium in the walls of blood vessels, so that they remain relaxed. Calcium antagonists have side effects - muscle weakness, swelling, dizziness, heart palpitations, facial redness, gastrointestinal disturbances.
• Another medicine for normalizing high blood pressure is an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, or ACE. They are among the most promising drugs at the moment and are being actively developed in many pharmaceutical laboratories around the world.
• Hybrid drugs are a combination of several active substances at once. Such drugs are among the most effective and fast-acting.

It must be remembered that you can only use high blood pressure pills if they have been prescribed by your doctor. The advice of a friend, colleagues, even mothers can do you a disservice - even an experienced specialist selects drugs that can be used by the patient very carefully and carefully. Usually one remedy is chosen and tested for a certain time. If there is no positive dynamics or the medicine does not “work” at full strength, there are side effects, it is canceled and switched to another drug. This suggests that the selection of such funds is a very complex, painstaking and individual task. There are no drugs that would help everyone at once, just as there are no identical patients.

The drugs prescribed by the specialist are used strictly according to the instructions in the prescribed dosage. You cannot change it at your own discretion or focusing only on your well-being. Both an overdose and a lack of an active substance can have a negative impact on health, and hypertension, especially in the initial stages, does not always have external manifestations. Patients need to have a device for measuring pressure at home and regularly take measurements, recording indicators.

The list of medicines against high blood pressure can be supplemented with mild sedative and antihypertensive herbal preparations in the form of tablets, for example, valerian root extract or such a proven remedy as Raunatin from the roots of rauwolfia from India. But when taking such funds, you need to remember to follow medical recommendations and the exact dosage.
