What is Blood Pressure? 6
Regulation of Blood Pressure By definition, BP = CO X PVR Physiologically, in both normal and hypertensive individuals, blood pressure is maintained by moment-to-moment regulation of cardiac output and peripheral vascular resistance, exerted at three anatomic sites: arterioles, postcapillary venules (capacitance vessels), and heart. A fourth anatomic control site, the kidney, contributes to maintenance of blood pressure by regulating the volume of intravascular fluid . 7
Parameters on which blood pressure depends Cardiac output Total Peripheral Resistance Stroke Volume And Heart Rate SYSTOLIC BP DIASTOLIC BP Preload: Preload can be defined as the initial stretching of the cardiac myocytes prior to contraction (EDV) Afterload : Afterload is the load against which the heart has to pump(TPR) 10
What is Hypertension? 11
HYPERTENSION: Hypertension can be defined as: A sustained rise in blood pressure. It is a condition in which the arteries have persistently high blood pressure, making harder for the heart to pump blood in the vessels. Basically it has 2 main components; the SYSTOLIC and the DIASTOLIC blood pressure. 12
What are the types of Hypertension? Types of Hypertension Essential Secondary A disorder of unknown origin affecting the Blood Pressure regulating mechanisms Secondary to other disease processes Environmental Factors Stress Na+ Intake Obesity Smoking 13
Classification of Blood Pressure The JNC 7 (2003)- 7 th Report of Joint National Committee(of USA) on prevention, detection, evaluation and treatment of high blood pressure, Classified HTN as follows- BP Classification Systolic BP in mm of Hg Diastolic BP in mm of Hg Normal < 120 < 80 Prehypertension 120- 139 80- 89 Hypertension Stage I 140 -159 90 - 99 Hypertension Stage II ≥ 160 ≥ 100 14
What is Antihypertensive? The drugs used in the treatment of hypertension act by reducing the cardiac output and/or reducing the total peripheral resistance, without correcting the cause 15
CLASSIFICATION OF ANTIHYPERTENSIVE Drugs 16
Antihypertensive Drugs 4. Direct renin inhibitor Aliskiren 2.ACE inhibitors Eg . Captopril, Enalapril , Lisinopril etc. 3. Angiotensin ( AT1 receptor) blockers Eg . Losartan, Candesartan etc. Diuretics Thiazide s : Hydroclorothiazid e , etc High ceiling : Furosemide , etc. Potassium Sparing : Spironolacton e , Amiloride 5 . Calcium channel blockers Verapamil, Diltiazem, Nifedipine , Lacidipine , etc . 6. Beta Adrenergic blockers Propranolol, Metoprolol, Atenolol, etc 17
MOA: 1- ↑ renal excretion of Na & water ↓ plasma volume ↓ C.O. 2- ↓ peripheral resistance ( desensitize smooth muscles to action of catecholamine) Advantage : Effective in controlling blood pressure in long term. Controls BP in Supine as well as standing positions so postural hypotension doesn’t occur. Disadvantage : Of Thiazides include, hypokalemia, hyperuricemia; Of Loop Diuretics include, Ototoxicity; Of Potassium Sparing group include, Gastric upsets, Gynecomastia in males, Menstrual irregularities in females Diuretics 19
Diuretics ….site of action 20
ACE Inhibitors MOA : ↓ ang II ↓ vasocostriction ↓ degradation of Bradykinin ( vasodilator) 21
Adverse effects of ACE inhibitors C A P T O P R I L Cough (dry Cough) Angioedema Proteinuria Taste changes Hypotension Contraindicated in Pregnancy Rashes Increased K+ Levels Low Ang II and Aldosterone levels 22
Angiotensin ( AT1 receptor ) Blockers Specific angiotensin receptors have been discovered, grouped and abbreviated as – AT1 and AT2 They are present on the surface of the target cells Most of the physiological actions of angiotensin are mediated via AT1 receptor Losartan is the specific AT1 blocker Available as 25 and 50 mg tablets 23
Upper respiratory infections Headache May cause occasional dizziness, inability to sleep, diarrhea, dyspnea, heartburn, nasal congestion, back pain, fatigue SIDE EFFEECTS OF ANGIOTENSIN BLOCKER 24
Direct Renin Inhibitors Aliskiren the only available member . Acts by blocking catalytic activity of renin and inhibiting production of Ang I and Ang II. Second line antihypertensive when established ACE inhibitors or ARBs cannot be used, or to supplement them. 25
Calcium channel blockers 26
Calcium channel blocker .. contd … 27
Side effects of Calcium channel blockers Calcium Channel Blockers Cardiovascular hypotension, palpitations, tachycardia Gastrointestinal constipation, nausea Other rash, flushing, peripheral edema, dermatitis 28
Mixed blockers Acting on Alpha as well as on Beta receptors. Labetolol , Carvidolol , Bucindolol Adverse Effects: Drowsiness, Fatigue, Insomnia, Orthostatic Hypotension 31
In the past, most studies on experimental hypertension were carried out on Dogs. Currently, rat is the preferred animal species Spontaneous hypertensive rat (SHR), the genetic strain of hypertensive rat, is the animal of choice Antihypertensive Screening Model 37

DISSCUSSION - The prevalence of Hypertension(HTN) is growing on day by day. - Both Primary and Secondary HTNs are directly or indirectly related with food habit, sedentary life styles and consumption of various drugs. - The antihypertensive drugs are classified according to their site of action, their target receptors and their mode of actions. - Older drugs for Hypertension are outdated due to their various adverse effects and newer are going on to be incorporating in treatment schedule. 51
Contd … - All types of antihypertensive drugs are only able to do symptomatic decrease in blood pressure. They are not able to treat the real cause of Hypertension. - Hypertension can be correlated with various Vata and Raktagata vyadhi but the exact terminology is not dealt in classical Ayurvedic texts. - There are various herbs which are proven as safe and better antihypertensive and search for new one should be done on the basis of scientifically proven and widely accepted Screening models of Antihypertensive . 52
Hypertension is becoming a global burden and the world is looking towards natural remedies system like Ayurveda , even though there are various antihypertensive drugs in contemporary system of medicine. So it is a high time to adopt proper screening model of antihypertensive and search for best solution from herbs for HTN. CONCLUSION 53
