			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is a growing interest nowadays in using natural remedies for ailments and various diseases, including high blood pressure (hypertension). The reason for this growing awareness is mainly down to the nasty side effects associated with the drugs and hypertension medicine we are given and the mere fact that we are not getting any better, instead we are getting worse.</p>
<p>The best hypertension treatment is the treatment that doesn?t cause you the side effects of the meds ? the fatigue, the light headedness, the frequent urination, the blurry vision and even the short or mini stroke. Whilst drugs can control your blood pressure it doesn?t actually cure it.</p>
<p>If you find that medication is beginning to dictate your life then it is time to research and investigate other more natural methods to treat hypertension and in some cases to prevent hypertension. The good news is that there are natural methods that can cure hypertension even severe hypertension.<a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://articlesbase.toolbarhome.com/partners/articlesbase/download/articlesbase.xpi"><br /></a></p>
<p>You can start by objectively looking at your diet ? we all know too much salt is not good for us and yet we eat six times the required salt intake (that?s whooping 6 teaspoonfuls of salt a day!), by not eating the right fruit and veg. we leave behind natural curing medicine that can practically save our lives. We indulge in highly saturated fats and continue to eat food with very little nutritional value either out of habit or lack of knowledge.</p>
<p>Exercising should be a daily task ? because with just half an hour a day of fast walking for example is proven to be one of the fastest ways to lower your blood pressure.</p>
<p>Stress is major cause of high blood pressure ? can?t stress enough how important stress management is to your blood pressure. If you learn to manage this right ? together with the correct foods and regular exercise you can quickly lower your blood pressure by 20 points after just a couple of weeks.</p>
<p>For those who wish to investigate further or want to take action by using only natural blood pressure remedies, then I highly recommend Craig Anderson&#8217;s <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.controlhighbloodpressure.info/">&#8220;The High Blood Pressure Remedy Report? </a>. Craig writes for Joe Barton Publishing and is the number 2 author in The Hypertension field. In it you?ll find a step-by-step formula to reduce high blood pressure naturally with no side effects.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Currently, there are only two types of treatment for those individuals afflicted with Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. One is specific drug medications, and the other is lung transplants. Let&#8217;s take a look at both types of treatment options.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
There are a number of drugs which can help individuals suffering with Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. Although it must be noted that not every drug may work, and may have side effects which may involve changing dosage or opting for other drugs until the proper one is found to work. If you have been diagnosed with PPH by your PPH specialist, he will no doubt perform a catheterization to determine which drugs are appropriate for you.  </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The following drugs are currently available and/or being further studied:</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
* Prostacyclin is a drug which is administered intravenously. <br />&#13;<br />
* Treprostinil is a drug which is also given as a continuous infusion under the skin.<br />&#13;<br />
* Calcium blockers help to relax the muscles in the blood vessels.<br />&#13;<br />
* Anticoagulants help to prevent the blood from clotting.<br />&#13;<br />
* Diurectics help to remove excess fluid from body tissues.<br />&#13;<br />
* Oxygen can be used to enter the bloodstream.<br />&#13;<br />
* Remodulin is given as an injection and helps to regulate the size of the blood vessels. It is also helpful in alleviating symptoms caused by increased exercise.<br />&#13;<br />
* Flolan is given as an injection 24/7, and is similar to Remodulin in is efficacy.<br />&#13;<br />
* Tracleer helps to improve breathing and the ability to exercise.<br />&#13;<br />
* Iloprost can be inhaled through a nebulizer.<br />&#13;<br />
* Viagra improves the condition of PPH individuals by allowing the arteries to open.<br />&#13;<br />
* Revatio controls the narrowness or wideness of blood vessels in the lining of the lungs.<br />&#13;<br />
* Ambrisentan appears to be helpful for individuals with pulmonary arterial hypertension. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
As with any drug, it is important for you and your PPH specialist to determine the efficacy of these drugs; which drugs cause serious side effects; and the treatment options associated with these drugs. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
In the event the Primary Pulmonary Hypertension increases damage to a lung, the PPH specialist will probably discuss the second option, which is a lung transplant. It may be worthy to note that the first heart-lung transplant was performed in 1981. Many of these operations were performed for patients with Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
However, the single lung transplant is the most common method of transplant used in cases of Primary Pulmonary Hypertension. This procedure involves the replacement of one lung; either the right or left. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
This procedure was first performed in 1983 in patients who had pulmonary fibrosis. There are also cases in which double lung transplants are also done to treat Primary Pulmonary Hypertension, but are less common than the single lung transplant for treatment of PPH.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
While there are fewer complications with the single lung transplant than with the heart-lung transplant, the survival rate is 70 percent for one year. It has also been reported that the ability of the right ventricle to heal itself is noteworthy. In patients with lung transplants, both the structure and function of the right ventricle dramatically improve. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
While there can be complications associated with lung transplants including rejection by the body of the transplanted organ, as well as infection, there are risks with any surgery that involves removal and transplant of major organs. Those who have had lung transplants are required to take medications for life in order to reduce their body&#8217;s immune system&#8217;s ability to reject the new organ.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Unfortunately, there is no treatment that can stop the progression of Primary Pulmonary Hypertension, however, the existing treatments can aid in slowing the disease&#8217;s progression and improve an individual&#8217;s quality of life. Treatment, therefore, is critical because without it, patients live less then five years. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
This is why seeking a PPH specialist is so important.<br />&#13;<br />
While new studies on the treatment of Primary Pulmonary Hypertension are on-going, it is necessary to mention not only the cost of treatment, but the determining factor which caused PPH in the first place.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
It is a well documented that Fen-Phen ultimately caused this disease, and litigation is on-going. The problem with those who have taken this weight suppressant is that the effects of the drug do not normally show up for ten years. Thus, you can imagine the anxiety of those individuals who have taken this drug, only to be informed it causes Primary Pulmonary Hypertension.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
It is highly recommended if you do show signs of PPH, that you first contact a PPH specialist to determine the cause of your symptoms, and then contact a PPH attorney who can file a lawsuit on your behalf. While this disease may alter your life, the costs involved in treatment and possible surgery are incalculable.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a persistent blood pressure above 90 mm Hg between the heart beats (diastolic) or over 140 mm Hg at the beats (systolic). The blood pressure varies naturally in response to stress and physical work load. Therefore the blood pressure shall be measured in a relaxed situation and several times before this diagnosis is certain.</p>
<p>Hypertension does not in itself give dramatic symptoms, but it is dangerous because it causes a highly increased risk for heart infarction, stroke and renal failure.</p>
<p>THE PREVALENCE OF HYPERTENSION</p>
<p>One out of six persons is hypertensive. Most persons suffering from hypertension is over the age of 35. Still 6% of teenagers are hypertensive and also 1% of every child.</p>
<p>THE SYMPTOMS AND CONSEQUENCES OF HYPERTENSION</p>
<p>Hypertension is often without symptoms. By mild hypertension, flushing and headache can occur.<br />
More serious hypertension gives symptoms like: Fatigue, dizziness, palpitations, tachycardia (rapid heart rate) and nosebleeds.</p>
<p>Extreme hypertension gives morning headache, blurred vision, dyspnoea (breathing difficulties) and elevated values of certain components in the blood, like urea and serum creatinine.</p>
<p>Hypertension will in the long run hurt the blood vessels, and serious hypertension can do extensive damage to the blood vessels in a few months or years. </p>
<p>The damaged blood vessels will impair the blood flow. They can also rupture causing a bleeding or be clogged by a blood clot that shuts out the blood flow and causes tissue damage. These things can occur in the brain, causing a stroke, in the heart causing heart infarction or in the kidneys with renal failure as a consequence.</p>
<p>A renal failure will in the next turn cause the hypertension to aggarvate, partly because a damaged kidney will not manage to secrete water and salt well enough, and partly because a kidney that do not get enough blood will start a hormonal mechanism that induces the kidney to actively hold back salt and water.</p>
<p>THE MECHANISMS AND CAUSES OF HYPERTENSION</p>
<p>The direct mechanisms causing hypertension is one or more of these factors:<br />
- An increased tension in the blood vessel walls.<br />
- An increased blood volume caused by elevated levels of salt and lipids in the blood holding back water.<br />
- Hardened and inelastic blood vessels caused by arteriosclerosis.</p>
<p>The primary causes behind these mechanisms are not fully understood, but these factors contribute to causing hypertension:<br />
- A high consume of salt<br />
- A high fat consume.<br />
- Stress at work and in the daily life.<br />
- Smoking.<br />
- Over-weight<br />
- Lack of exercise.<br />
- Kidney failure.</p>
<p>LIFESTYLE MEASURES TO PREVENT AND TREAT HYPERTENSION</p>
<p>Lifestyle measures shall always be a component of the hypertension treatment. Sometimes such measures are enough to cure the condition. Those measures are:<br />
- Reducing salt consume.<br />
- Reduction of the consume of fat, and especially saturated fat.<br />
- Weight reduction.<br />
- Relaxing and stress reduction techiques, for example meditation and autogenic training.<br />
- Regular exercise.</p>
<p>SPECIAL FOOD TYPES THAT REDUCE THE BLOOD PRESSURE</p>
<p>Research projects suggest that the following food types reduce blood pressure.</p>
<p>Fish oil and fat fish. The working substances seem to be the omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The effect from fish oil seems to cease when the fish oil supplements are stopped.<br />
-Olive oil, especially olive oil of the quality extra virgin.</p>
<p>NATURAL SUPPLEMENTS TO HELP AGAINST HYPERTENSION</p>
<p>Natural supplements to treat hypertension exist. These supplements reduce blood pressure by lowering the cholesterol and lipid content in the blood, by preventing oxidation of tissue components by free radicals, and by helping damaged blood vessels to heal. Examples of ingredients having these effects are vitamin B3, inositol, turmenic extract and gum guggul extract. </p>
<p>They may also contain Ingredients giving a direct anti-hypertensive effect, like potassium, magnesium, calcium, vitamin C and fatty acids from marine sources.</p>
<p>MEDICAL TREATMENT OF HYPERTENSION </p>
<p>When lifestyle measures and supplements are not enough to cure the condition, medical treatment must be applied.</p>
<p>Diuretics, or medicines to increase the urine production, are used to decrease the water content in the blood vessels, and thereby reduce the pressure in the vessels. When the water content is lowered, the heart does not need to pump so hard any more, and this will also reduce the pressure.</p>
<p>Beta-adrenergic blockers are another group of medicines to treat hypertension. This group of medicines block the signals that hormones and neurotransmitters give to the vessel walls, and the vessel walls then relax. They also slow down the heart rate to give a lower pressure exerted by the heart upon the blood.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blood pressure is the force of the blood pushing against the walls of the arteries. Blood pressure is the result of two forces: from the heart as it pumps blood into the arteries and throughout the circulatory system, and the force of the arteries as they resist blood flow. Blood pressure is measured by putting a blood pressure cuff around your arm, inflating the cuff and listening for the flow of blood. Blood pressure is always given as these two numbers, the systolic and diastolic pressures. Blood pressure is traditionally measured with a device called a sphygmomanometer. Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). Blood pressure is generally felt to be abnormally high at a level of 140/90, and some sort of definitive therapy and follow-up should be started at this level. High blood pressure is called the silent killer because it usually has no symptoms.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Blood is carried from the heart to all parts of your body in vessels called arteries. Blood does not flow regularly like water from a tap:-When the heart contracts (systole), the blood is propelled into the main arteries that act as a pressurised reservoir.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Pressure in a hose can be regulated either by controlling the rate at which fluid passes through it or by widening it. Pressure inside your arteries can cause the muscles that line the walls of the arteries to thicken. Your blood pressure is at its highest when the heart beats, pumping the blood. When the heart is at rest, between beats, your blood pressure falls. Still, for most of your waking hours, your blood pressure stays pretty much the same when you are sitting or standing still.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Heart disease is the UK?s biggest killer, claiming thousands of lives each year. Heart failure is when your heart cannot pump blood around the body as well as it should, and this can cause you to become short of breath and can cause your ankles to swell. Heart attack High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart attacks.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Various disorders and drugs can cause the compensatory mechanisms to malfunction, and high blood pressure may result. Causes In most instances of high blood pressure, no known cause can be identified. Doctors do not know what causes high blood pressure in 90 to 95 percent of people who have it. For some people, just being in a medical setting causes their blood pressure to rise.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Symptoms When blood pressure is too low, the first organ to malfunction is usually the brain. Symptoms that may occur include: Confusion Chest pain Ear noise or buzzing Irregular heartbeat Nosebleed Tiredness Vision changes. What is treatment, medication, medicines, remedy, drugs, cure of lowering high Blood pressure or Hypertension? . Although high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, can cause headaches, dizziness and problems with vision, the majority of people with the condition do not display any noticeable symptoms.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Treatment</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Treatment is focused on reducing water retention and lowering blood pressure to normal limits. Treatment for high blood pressure depends on the severity of the disease and whether you have other health problems, such as heart failure or diabetes, or you are pregnant. Treatment of primary high blood pressure, especially moderate or severe high blood pressure, decreases the risk of heart failure, coronary artery disease, heart attack, abnormal heartbeats, stroke, and kidney disease, and reduces the risk of death from these conditions. Treatment for high blood pressure must be highly individualized and based on your risk factors, such as diabetes, smoking, and heart disease. Treatment when blood pressure increases slightly and the woman is not near the end of her pregnancy, bed rest may help reduce the pressure. Treatment begins with changes you can make in your lifestyle to help lower your blood pressure and reduce your risk of heart disease .</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>High blood pressure is called the silent killer because it usually has no symptoms. When high blood pressure is not found and treated, it can cause: The heart to get larger, which may lead to heart failure. If your blood pressure is in the prehypertension range, it is more likely that you will end up with high blood pressure unless you take action to prevent it. High blood pressure is dangerous because it makes the heart work too hard and contributes to atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). If your blood pressure is between 120/80 mmHg and 139/89 mmHg, then you have prehypertension. The good news is that if your blood pressure is high, it can be lowered by making changes to your lifestyle, for example changing your diet, exercising and losing weight, and when needed, with tablets. The medical community?s knowledge of high blood pressure is great, but far from perfect. High blood pressure is more common: In patients whose families have high blood pressure In those over 35 years old In males In Afro-Americans In women on oral contraceptives. The only way to know whether you have high blood pressure is to have it taken by a person who knows how (those automatic machines you sit at in the supermarket are not necessarily kept accurate condition.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Blood pressure can be defined as the pressure or force that is applied against the artery walls as blood is carried through the circulatory system. It is recorded as a measurement of this force in relation to the heart&#8217;s pumping activity, and is measured in millimeters of mercury. The top number, systolic pressure is the measurement of the pressure that occurs when the heart contracts of beats. The bottom number, or diastolic pressure, is the measurement recorded between beats, while the heart is at rest. </p>
<p> Causes of Primary Hypertension</p>
<p> Lack of physical activity: Most of the causes for primary hypertension are caused by the lifestyle factor. The lack of physical activity could, first of all, increase cholesterol levels. Rising cholesterol levels narrows the blood vessel, thus increasing the pressure of blood flow &#8211; hypertension.</p>
<p> Adrenal tumors that are causes of secondary hypertension are pheochromocytoma, primary aldosteronism, and Cushing&#8217;s syndrome. The last two types of adrenal tumors require complicated treatment, which unfortunately is not always effective in lowering blood pressure while removal of the pheochromocytoma has a better chance of treating hypertension.</p>
<p> Signs and Symptoms of Hypertension</p>
<p> Hypertension is only determined through a blood pressure measurement equipment and reads the systolic and diastolic of the blood. There is actually no identified sign of hypertension; rather, it varies from one person to another. Some people report to have experienced headaches, fatigue, dizziness, blurring of vision and facial flushing.</p>
<p> Other symptoms such as fatigue, nervousness, palpitations, racing or irregular heartbeats, chest pain suggest hypertension caused by other conditions. Bleeding in the retina, also known as retinal hemorrhage, or from the nose (Epistaxis) may be indicative of high blood pressure. Cramping in the leg while walking, excess perspiration, nausea, vomiting, frequent urination, shortness of breath and restlessness are other possible symptoms of hypertension. In rare cases, the high blood pressure may cause heart attacks, kidney failure or brain swelling, which can lead to drowsiness and coma. Disturbed levels of consciousness such as sleepiness and even seizures in severe cases of hypertension, may occur.</p>
<p> Treatment of Hypertension</p>
<p> Drugs used in the treatment of hypertension include thiazide diuretics, beta blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and calcium channel blockers. The newer ACE inhibitors and calcium channel blockers were promoted as being better for the treatment of hypertension than the older thiazide diuretics and beta blockers, however this was mostly marketing hype since the newer drugs were on patent and made more money for the drug companies. However the studies showed that, at least compared to thiazide diuretics, the newer drugs weren&#8217;t as good, even they cost much more.</p>
<p> Thiazide diuretics. These medications act on your kidneys to help your body eliminate sodium and water, reducing blood volume. Thiazide diuretics are often the first &#8212; but not the only &#8212; choice in high blood pressure medications. Still, diuretics are often not prescribed. If you&#8217;re not taking a diuretic and your blood pressure remains high, talk to your doctor about adding one or replacing a drug you currently take with a diuretic.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>High blood force, too called hypertension, is harmful because it makes the eye job harder to pump blood to the system and it contributes to hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis and the growth of eye bankruptcy. Hypertension is an exceedingly popular health trouble, affecting about one in four adults in the U. S. There are two types of hypertension. Hypertension without a recognizable reason is categorized as vital or main hypertension. When hypertension has a particular reason, such as in cases of kidney disease, it is considered incidental hypertension. Several factors and conditions may beat a character in its growth. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Some factors including smoke ,being overweight, deficiency of physiological action, salt in the diet, overly more alcohol intake, strain,old age ,genetics ,household story of higher blood force ,chronic kidney disease and adrenal and thyroid disorders. Hypertension is considered to be present when an individual&#8217;s systolic blood force is consistently 140 mmHg or greater, and/or their diastolic blood force is consistently 90 mmHg or greater. Severe hypertension can induce symptoms such as worry , sleepiness, disarray and coma. Hypertension under this condition needs to be controlled, but prolonged hospitalization is not inevitably required. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Hypertension is typically treated by making changes in your lifestyle, and with drug therapy. Weight decrease and routine aerobic drill (e. g. jogging) are recommended as the best steps in treating balmy to conservative hypertension. Regular balmy drill improves blood flowing and helps to cut resting eye pace and blood force. Stress administration, biofeedback and meditation may assist you cut your blood force. Relaxation therapy, such as meditation, that reduces environmental strain, higher stable levels and over-illumination can be an extra method of ameliorating hypertension. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Avoid drunkenness overly more alcohol, which is associated with higher blood force. Eat a robust diet that includes oodles of fruits and vegetables. Don&#8217;t smoke. Smoking and higher blood force are leading danger factors for having an eye blast or shot subsequently in living. Acupuncture and acupressure have both been used really successfully to lower blood force readings. Garlic, onions, carrots, and celery are known to cut blood force. Garlic is the better known of the group, and garlic pills and capsules can be purchased at health nutrient stores that are just as efficient at reducing blood force as eating sweet garlic.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>High blood pressure, also known as hypertension,  is often considered a modern day disease. Everything about the modern,  fast-paced, American lifestyle seems geared towards elevating our blood  pressure. Some of the causes of high blood pressure such as smoking, obesity,  and excessive alcohol consumption, are more easily dealt with. All it requires  is a few small lifestyle changes and a bit of willpower. But other causes, such  as a stressful job, city pollution, and family history, appear to make  hypertension almost inevitable for some.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p> In addition,  other diseases affecting the kidney or adrenal gland can be a cause of high  blood pressure. Certain steroid based medicines also increase blood pressure  and can lead to hypertension. Whatever the cause of high blood pressure, the  results are the same: your heart is put under more pressure and has more work  to do. This increased workload can lead to heart disease, <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mitamins.com/disease/Heart-Attack.html">heart  attack</a></b>, and stroke.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p> Many high blood pressure treatments seek to eliminate the causes of  hypertension but as we?ve seen, many of the causes of high blood pressure are  not so easily avoided. If we live in a smoggy city to make a living, then  that?s where we live, and there is little we can do. An alternative <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mitamins.com/disease/High-Blood-Pressure.html">high  blood pressure treatment</a></b> is to increase the heart?s capability to deal with the external factors that cause hypertension. In both cases blood  pressure decreases, the only difference is that one method doesn?t mean a  complete lifestyle overhaul.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p> An overworked heart needs more energy to perform its functions and this is  where Co Enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) comes in as a <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mitamins.com/disease/High-Blood-Pressure.html">treatment for  high blood pressure</a></b>. If the key to lowering blood pressure is giving up  your high-paid job and retreating to a Tibetan monastery, then the back  door key to high blood pressure treatment is CoQ10.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hypertension can be classified either essential (primary) or secondary. Essential hypertension indicates that no specific medical cause can be found to explain a patient&#8217;s condition. Secondary hypertension indicates that the high blood pressure is a result of (i.e., secondary to) another condition, such as kidney disease or tumours (pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma). Persistent hypertension is one of the risk factors for strokes, heart attacks, heart failure and arterial aneurysm, and is a leading cause of chronic renal failure. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Cause and Pathogenesis</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The cause of primary (essential) hypertension is not known. It is thought to be due to multiple risk factors. Known risk factors include a familial history of the disease, race, obesity, tobacco smoking, stress, and a high-fat or high-sodium diet in genetically susceptible individuals. Extremely nervous and highly emotional people also tend to develop hypertension more readily. Secondary hypertension is related to an underlying disease process such as renal parenchymal disorders , renal artery disease, endocrine and metabolic disorders, central nervous system disorders, and narrowing of the aorta (coarctation).</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Causes Pulmonary Hypertension: Pulmonary hypertension results from constriction, or tightening, of the blood vessels that supply blood to the lungs. Consequently, it becomes difficult for blood to pass through the lungs, making it harder for the heart to pump blood forward. This stress on the heart leads to enlargement of the heart and eventually fluid can build up in the liver and tissues, such as the in the legs. Affected patients can sometimes notice increasing shortness of breath and dizziness.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
What are the symptoms of Hypertension?</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
If you have hypertension, chances are that you may not have any symptoms at all. Hypertension is often called the &#8220;silent killer&#8221; because most people who have it do not feel sick, but if left uncontrolled, it can lead to a heart attack or kidney disease. This is why it is so important to treat hypertension even if you feel fine. Many people can keep their hypertension under control by making some changes in their daily activities, such as increasing exercise and eating a healthier diet. Other people may need to take medicine in addition to diet and/or exercise.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Hypertension Treatment</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is dangerous because it can lead to strokes, heart attacks, heart failure, or kidney disease. The goal of hypertension treatment is to lower high blood pressure and protect important organs, like the brain, heart, and kidneys from damage. Treatment for hypertension has been associated with reductions in stroke (reduced an average of 35%-40%), heart attack (20%-25%), and heart failure (more than 50%), according to research.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Treating high blood pressure can help prevent serious ? even life-threatening ? complications. Your doctor also may suggest steps to control conditions that can contribute to high blood pressure, such as diabetes and high cholesterol.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The treatment for secondary pulmonary hypertension usually begins with treating the underlying cause. For instance, if a blood clot, or pulmonary embolism, is causing the hypertension, the clot may need to be surgically removed.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
For individuals with hypertension, lifestyle modifications as mentioned above are important but many times, medications will also be needed to adequately manage blood pressure. Many types of drugs are used to lower blood pressure.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pulmonary hypertension refers to a medical condition in which there is an elevated blood pressure in the pulmonary artery which can restrict blood flow to the lungs and cause the heart&#8217;s right ventricle to overwork itself, leading to a variety of symptoms (including dizziness, fainting, and shortness of breath) as well a marked decreased ability to exert oneself (such as through exercise or a lot of activity). </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The term primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH), although it&#8217;s now being used less in the medical realm in favor of the term idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, is still a term used readily in literature as well as in the general public, and refers to pulmonary hypertension that has an unknown or unverified cause. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
PPH has many possible causes, but because the term primary pulmonary hypertension was coined due to the fact that its cause is unknown, specific causes are difficult to pinpoint. Causes of the different types of pulmonary hypertension in general can include left heart failure, congenital heart disease, lung diseases, HIV and other autoimmune disorders, pulmonary embolism, and genetics.  </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
One of the biggest suspected causes of primary pulmonary hypertension is the use of certain anti-obesity and weight-loss pills, such as Fen-Phen, which the FDA took off the market in September 1997 after reports linked it to pulmonary hypertension and other conditions.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
If you have primary pulmonary hypertension, you&#8217;ll want to consider an effective PPH treatment. One of the most popular and beneficial PPH treatments is an FDA-approved drug called Tracleer. Why is this treatment so beneficial? Tracleer treatment, produced by Patheon Inc. and marketed by Actelion Pharmaceuticals, is a vasodilator drug in tablet form that is taken orally in order to help block the effects of endothelin, a vasoconstrictor naturally found in the body to shrink blood vessels, but is found in much higher concentrations in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
In addition, PPH treatment using this helps to relax the lung&#8217;s blood vessels as well as increase the level of oxygen in the blood. For patients with primary pulmonary hypertension, what this means in a practical sense is that they are able to perform regular activities at an improved level, without becoming fatigued, dizzy, or short of breath right away, and they are able to tolerate exercise more. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
However, like all drugs, including others used for PPH treatment, it does have a number of side-effects that patients taking it or considering its use should become aware of. Some of the more common side-effects associated with this treatment include headaches, nasal congestion, flushing out, passing out, and even abnormally low blood pressure. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
The most serious possible side-effect associated with this treatment, however, involves the liver. Tracleer can actually impair normal liver function, and even cause liver damage, which may or may not be permanent in nature. As a result, patients with primary pulmonary hypertension on this treatment require monthly blood tests of the liver&#8217;s function.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
In addition to side-effects, Tracleer treatment also has one major contraindication: pregnant women or women who may be or are trying to become pregnant must not take it, as this particularly form of PPH treatment has been proven to be teratogenic (known to harm a fetus, cause birth defects, or miscarriage). </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Therefore, in addition to monthly liver blood tests, female patients on it must take monthly pregnancy tests in case pregnancy occurs, at which point it must be stopped immediately. Further, if you&#8217;re a female on Tracleer treatment and you&#8217;re using a hormonal method of birth control, you will also have to supplement with a barrier method (like condoms) because it has been shown to reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills, patches, rings, injections, and implants. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
While this treatment often has more side-effects and potential complications than other types of PPH treatment, such as Flolan and Remodulin (two of the other most common types of PPH treatment), it is the preferred type for many because of its convenience in that it can be taken orally. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Patients with primary pulmonary hypertension may wish to talk to their doctors about different types of PPH treatment, including Tracleer treatment. It is available by prescription only and should only be taken under a doctor&#8217;s advice and directions. </p>
<p>&#13;<br />
If you have pulmonary hypertension with an unknown cause, and you believe you may have developed primary pulmonary hypertension because of your use of the anti-obesity, weight-loss pill Fen-Phen, then in addition to asking your doctor about Tracleer treatment, it is recommended you seek the legal counsel from a reputable law firm or PPH attorney specializing in Fen-Phen litigation cases.  You may qualify for compensation.</p>
