Hydralazine Hydrochloride 20mg Injection
SKU GME616Product Introduction
Hydralazine injection is an arterial vasodilator used for selected cases of severe hypertension when oral treatment is unsuitable or urgent blood-pressure reduction is required. It is administered with clinical monitoring.
How to use
A clinician gives the exact preparation by the intravenous or intramuscular route suitable for the preparation and monitors blood pressure and pulse. Repeat treatment depends on response; it is not an oral take-home regimen.
How it works
Direct relaxation of arteriolar smooth muscle lowers peripheral vascular resistance, with possible reflex increases in heart rate.
Side effects
Headache, flushing, nausea, palpitations, tachycardia and excessive blood-pressure reduction can occur.
Important information
Coronary disease, stroke risk and marked tachycardia need assessment. Longer exposure can cause a lupus-like syndrome; chest pain or profound hypotension requires prompt attention.
Uses
- Severe hypertension requiring parenteral therapy in selected clinical circumstances
Benefits
Helps bring severe high blood pressure under control when an injectable treatment is needed.
Can it be self-injected for a high home reading?
No. Severe hypertension requires assessment of symptoms, organ injury and an appropriate monitored treatment.
Why might the pulse become faster?
The body can respond to vasodilation with reflex tachycardia.
Does a rapid pressure drop always mean better treatment?
No. Excessive lowering can impair organ perfusion.
Should chest pain after administration be reported?
Immediately. Tachycardia can increase cardiac oxygen demand and worsen angina.
Can it be used during pregnancy?
It is used in some obstetric hypertension protocols, with specialist selection and monitoring.
What is the lupus-like reaction associated with it?
Prolonged exposure can cause joint pain, fever or other autoimmune-like symptoms that need investigation.
Can the oral and injectable regimens be exchanged directly?
No. Their use and response assessment differ.
What is monitored after administration?
Blood pressure, pulse and signs of adequate organ perfusion guide further treatment.
Arteriole: a small artery. Reflex tachycardia: increased pulse in response to falling pressure.
