Abstract

Hydralazine is used orally as a therapeutic agent to treat essential hypertension and intravenously to lower blood pressure urgently or emergently. FDA-approved hydralazine is usually not used as a first-line agent for the treatment of essential hypertension due to the stimulation of the sympathetic system. It is used in combination with other hypertensives to treat persistently elevated blood pressure. [1] [2]
