		<description>Nice medications about hypertension.. Very informative..

I like to share some other medications:

Diuretics (&quot;water pills&quot;) increase the kidneys&#039; excretion of salt (sodium) and water, decreasing the volume of fluid in the bloodstream and the pressure in the arteries. Diuretics are the oldest and most studied antihypertensive agents.

Beta blockers decrease the vigor of the heart&#039;s contractions. By decreasing the force used to pump blood into the arteries, the medications decrease blood pressure. In addition to lowering blood pressure, beta blockers have multiple beneficial effects (including prolonged life) in patients with coronary artery disease, patients who have had myocardial infarction (heart attack), and many patients with congestive heart failure (CHF).

Calcium channel blockers. This class of agents lowers blood pressure in several ways. Two of these agents, diltiazem (Cardizem®) and verapamil (Calan®, Covera HS®, Isoptin®, Veralan®) act in part like the beta blockers, decreasing the vigor of the heart&#039;s contractions. They decrease blood pressure by decreasing the force with which blood is pumped into the arteries. These agents also dilate (open up) arteries, decreasing resistance to blood flow, thereby decreasing blood pressure.

Thanks for sharing..</description>
