An analog of anaprilin. Advantages of the medicinal product

Diseases of the cardiovascular system take the leading place among the common pathologies. This statistics is spreading everywhere, so the problem is global for medical professionals around the world. The elderly are most affected by heart disease, but the problem tends to rejuvenate. The most frequent vascular pathologies are: myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, arterial hypertension, rhythm disturbances. All these diseases can lead to death if you do not provide medical assistance on time. One of the drugs that are effective in most cardiovascular disorders is beta-blocker-anaprilin. It belongs to a group of nonselective medical devices and acts on both beta ₁ and beta ₂ receptors. In addition, the analog of anaprilin - bisoprolol is widely used.

Mechanism of action of the drug

Medication Anaprilin has several effects: it stops pain syndrome (antianginal action), lowers blood pressure (antihypertensive drug) and normalizes the heart rate (antiarrhythmic drug). All this is due to the blockade of beta-adrenergic receptors, which lead to the excitation of the nervous system. With the use of the drug, cardiomyocytes become less excitable, so it is contraindicated in people who have hypotension, since there may be a collapse. The effect of the medication on the respiratory system is to increase the tone of the bronchi, which is extremely dangerous in diseases such as rhinitis, COPD, bronchial asthma. In order to avoid the side effects of non-selective beta-blockers, an analog of anaprilin is used.
