Uses
Alphadopa L is used in the treatment of angina, arrhythmias, heart attack and hypertension.
How it Works
Alphadopa L works by blocking tiny areas called receptors, where messages are received by the heart and blood vessels. As a result, the pressure of blood within the blood vessels is reduced, helping to relax and widen artery muscles and the heart beats more slowly and with less force.
