High Blood Pressure Tablets, also known as antihypertensive tablets, are medicines used for the treatment and long-term management of high blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure is a chronic medical condition in which the force of blood against the walls of the arteries remains consistently higher than normal. If left untreated, hypertension can silently damage vital organs and significantly increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, vision loss, and other life-threatening complications.

• Vasoconstrictor agents

• Mineral supplements (like sodium-based compounds)
