Blood pressure is the force of blood pressure against the artery walls. Each time the heart beats, it pumps blood into the arteries. His blood pressure is higher, while the heart beats, so that the blood in the arteries. This is called systolic pressure. If the heart at peace, while your blood pressure falls. This is the diastolic pressure. Blood pressure is always two digits, the systolic and diastolic pressures. Both are important.

The systolic pressure is the first point or the top and the diastolic pressure is the second or less (eg, 120/80). If your blood pressure 120/80, which reads “120 over 80.”

It is important to take your blood pressure under control. The goal of treatment is blood pressure of 140/90 or less for people with other conditions such as diabetes and renal insufficiency.

Adoption of healthy lifestyles is an essential and effective in the prevention and control of hypertension. However, if lifestyle changes are not effective, consistent control of pressure, you may need medication for blood pressure.

The types of medications available to treat hypertension:

  • Diuretics: Diuretics are sometimes water pills, because the kidney and concise on water and sodium from the body, reducing blood pressure.
  • Beta-blockers: Beta-blockers reduce nerve impulses to the heart and blood vessels. This is the heart beat more slowly and with less force. The result of these drugs, lowers blood pressure and heart works less hard.
  • ACE inhibitors: angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors prevent the formation of a hormone called angiotensin II, in general, reduce the causes of the blood vessels. ACE inhibitors, vessels relax and blood pressure decreases.
  • Antagonists of angiotensin receptor: receptor antagonists and angiotensin protect the blood vessels of angiotensin-II. Accordingly, the boats are wider and blood pressure decreases.
  • Blockers calcium channel (BCC): CCBS maintain calcium in heart muscle cells and blood vessels. It follows that the blood vessels relax and pressure.
  • Alpha blockers: Alpha blockers reduce nerve impulses to blood vessels, allowing blood to facilitate the blood pressure to go.
  • Alpha-alpha-beta-blockers beta-blockers work as alpha-blockers but also slow the heartbeat, as beta blockers do. As a result of its use, less blood is pumped through the vessels and blood pressure decreases.
  • Inhibitors of the nervous system: Nervous system inhibitors relax blood vessels, control of nerve impulses, and that means the blood vessels and increased blood pressure to go.
  • Vasodilators: vasodilators, directly open blood vessels by relaxing the muscles in the vessel walls, which can reduce blood pressure.
