Aspirin and High Blood Pressure

 

What is high blood pressure? It is the increased pressure of the blood on the walls of the arteries. Quite confusing isn’t it? Actually if you understand the meaning of blood pressure you will understand about high blood pressure. Blood pressure means the pressure that the blood applies on the walls of the arteries while flowing from the heart towards the different parts of the body. This working of the heart is calculated in terms of numbers and expressed as systolic pressure and the resting moment is known as diastolic pressure. The normal pressure is120/ 80 and if the systolic or diastolic pressure is raised more than that then it is called high blood pressure or hypertension.

How is Aspirin useful?

Aspirin is prepared from the extract of willow bark and it has proved to be helpful as an effective anti- inflammatory and a good pain killer. It has also proved to be effective in providing protection against stroke and heart attack. It is a drug which is easily available from the chemist without any prescription. Though what is the connection between blood pressure and aspirin intake is not clear till date but it has shown such positive results that doctors use it to treat high blood pressure patients.

What is the working system of aspirin?

Aspirin is the name of a chemical which is called salicylate. This chemical has proved to be very useful in reducing fevers and pain. It is not a new discovery but has been used as a drug by the Greeks. How does it work? Aspirin has the potential to obstruct the formation of prostaglandins which is a chemical produced by the body. In fact aspirin creates a blockade against the enzyme that is needed to form prostaglandins. How does this help? It helps because this way the formation of blood clots in the blood vessels is restricted and the passage is clear for the blood to flow freely from the heart to the other parts of the body. Is there any side effect of aspirin?

Side effects of Aspirin 

Though it has been observed that aspirin is well absorbed by most of the people then too the side effects of aspirin cannot be ruled out as it has also been seen in some people. The side effects of aspirin are high risk of bleeding and intestine or stomach problem which may be followed by vomiting. So, aspirin should not be taken by people who are allergic to pain killers or by people who are suffering from ulcer, gout, asthma, or kidney problem.

But the side effects of aspirin cannot over rule the helpful effects of aspirin so if a person is suffering from high blood pressure he should be given aspirin as a part of his medication as that will help to reduce the pressure of the blood on the walls of the arteries.
