Results for tag: "Calcium Channel Blocker Vasodilator"

Calcium Channel Blocker Vasodilators are a class of cardiovascular drugs used to treat hypertension, angina, and other cardiovascular conditions. These drugs work by blocking the entry of calcium ions into the cells of the heart and blood vessels, which relaxes the muscles of the vessels and reduces blood pressure. They also reduce the workload of the heart by decreasing the amount of oxygen needed to pump blood. Common side effects of these drugs include dizziness, headache, and nausea. Calcium Channel Blocker Vasodilators are available in both oral and intravenous forms. Oral forms are typically taken once or twice daily, while intravenous forms are administered as needed. These drugs are often used in combination with other medications, such as diuretics, beta-blockers, and ACE inhibitors, to achieve optimal blood pressure control. Some companies that produce Calcium Channel Blocker Vasodilators include Pfizer, Merck, and Novartis. Show Less Read more
