Hypertension (high blood pressure) - to bring blood pressure down and keep it there
Heart protection: lowers the risk of heart problems in some patients
It helps to relax blood arteries, which makes it simpler for the heart to pump blood and lowers blood pressure.
Pregnancy interaction:

Could hurt the fetus in a big way, as by causing renal problems or low amniotic fluid.
Women who can get pregnant should use effective birth control and talk to their doctor before using Aziltrend.
