High Blood Pressure Medication – Renin Inhibitors
A relatively new high blood pressure medication is a drug known as Tekturna which is a rennin inhibitor. An enzyme which is produced by the kidneys, renin can trigger a chemical chain reaction which raises your blood pressure. Tekturna blocks the action of renin and tends to act faster than many other drugs in controlling your blood pressure. This said, while Tekturna can be used in isolation, it is most effective when it is used in combination with other drugs for controlling high blood pressure. One particular benefit of Tekturna is that it is a fairly long-acting drug with effects lasting for more than 24 hours so that it need only be taken in tablet form once a day.
