How INDERAL LA 20MG TABLET Works
INDERAL
LA 20MG TABLET is a beta-blocker works by blocking the actions of
certain chemical messengers (such as adrenaline and noradrenaline) in
our body that controls the function of the heart, brain and kidneys and
lungs. In the heart, stopping the actions of these chemical messengers
reduces the heart rate and force of contraction. This helps to control
abnormal heart rate in patients suffering from arrhythmia. It can also
reduce the risk of abnormal heart signs (such as racing heartbeat,
nervousness and high blood pressure) associated with phaeochromocytoma
or anxiety. INDERAL LA 20MG TABLET can relax the blood vessels supplying
the heart and the brain. This action improves blood flow and oxygen
supply to the heart and makes the heart to pump blood more efficiently
with less pressure. It also helps in managing and managing problems
caused due to poor blood circulation such as chest pain (angina), heart
attack or migraine. Additionally, INDERAL LA 20MG TABLET reduces the
production of thyroid hormones (triiodothyronine) in patients suffering
from overactive thyroid gland. It also stops the transfer of abnormal
nerve signals between the brain and the muscles which helps in reducing
tremors.
