Trandate 200mg 56’s contains Labetalol, a combined alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptor blocker, designed to effectively lower blood pressure and improve heart health. It works by relaxing blood vessels, reducing heart rate, and decreasing the workload on the heart.
This dual-action mechanism makes it highly effective for treating high blood pressure (hypertension), especially in cases such as pregnancy-induced hypertension or hypertensive crises. It is also beneficial in reducing the risk of complications related to elevated blood pressure, including heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage.
