List of Blood Pressure Medications

"Real" drugs used in the treatment of Hypertension:

Notes on the various types of blood pressure medications:

q      Diuretics act on the kidneys to get rid of salt and on the blood vessels to reduce resistance.

q      Beta-blockers lower blood pressure by slowing the heart and decreasing the force of cardiac contractions.

q      Vasodilators act on the arteries to widen them.

q      ACE inhibitors act as both vasodilators and diuretics by inhibiting the production of angiotensin, a powerful vasoconstictor hormone which also acts on the adrenal glands to keep more sodium in the body.
