TWINBLOK 5MG TABLET 10'S

How TWINBLOK 5MG TABLET 10'S Works

• TWINBLOK 5MG TABLET 10'S is classified as a calcium channel blocker, a type of medication designed to help manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and certain heart conditions. It primarily works by influencing the way calcium ions move into the cells of your heart and blood vessel walls.
• When you take TWINBLOK 5MG TABLET 10'S, it inhibits the entry of calcium into these cells. Calcium is essential for muscle contraction, so by reducing calcium influx, the medication helps to relax the smooth muscle cells present in the walls of your blood vessels. This relaxation causes the blood vessels to widen or dilate.
• The widening of blood vessels has a direct effect on blood pressure. As the vessels become less constricted, the heart doesn't have to pump as forcefully to circulate blood throughout the body. This leads to a reduction in blood pressure. The reduced pressure and the relaxed blood vessels also lessen the strain on the heart, making it work more efficiently and improving overall cardiovascular function. By relaxing blood vessels, TWINBLOK 5MG TABLET 10'S effectively contributes to better blood flow and reduced cardiac workload.
