Apresoline (Hydralazine) is a prescription medication used to lower high blood pressure (hypertension) or severe hypertensive conditions requiring immediate intervention, such as pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, hypertensive emergency, or deteriorating heart failure. The active ingredient in Apresoline is Hydralazine. Hydralazine belongs to the class of medication called vasodilators. It works by relaxing the blood vessels and allowing blood to flow easily to and away from the heart. As a result, lowering high blood pressure prevents strokes, vision loss, kidney failure, and sudden cardiac death.

Before using a Hydralazine tablet, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to Hydralazine, aspirin, tartrazine, or any ingredient in hydralazine tablets. You should use your medication according to your prescription label. Apresoline is a tablet and should be taken orally with a cup of water. Your dose depends on the nature of your blood pressure reading and response to treatment. Your doctor may start you on a low dose and watch your blood pressure as time passes. You should not increase your dose at any time as this may cause a sudden drop in your blood pressure and may cause profound side effects. People with high blood pressure may not experience any symptoms at all. Treating hypertension is a lifelong treatment option, do not stop using your medication at any time. It may take severe days before you see the changes in your blood pressure due to Hydralazine medication. You should check your blood pressure regularly. Contact your doctor if there are no changes in your blood pressure or if your condition worsens (increasing blood pressure readings).

During pregnancy, Hydralazine can regulate high blood pressure in women with pre-eclampsia or pregnancy-induced hypertension under the supervision of a medical doctor. You should use Hydralazine cautiously to prevent a rapid drop in blood pressure. Hydralazine passes into human breast milk. Discuss the risk and benefits of using this medication with your doctor before breastfeeding your child. Tell your doctor about all your medicines, including prescription, OTC, herbal supplements, and vitamins. There may be a drug interaction between Hydralazine and other medications such as aspirin, warfarin, carbidopa, bisoprolol, nifedipine, and tadalafil.
