Other Medicines for High Blood Pressure
Why It Is Used
These drugs often are used to treat high blood pressure in combination with other drugs when first-line medicines alone do not control blood pressure. They might be used if a person is in a hypertensive crisis.
These medicines are used to treat other health problems, too.
