How does methyldopa interact with calcium channel blockers and what are the combined effects on blood pressure and vascular health?
Methyldopa and calcium channel blockers both lower blood pressure. When combined, they can lead to significantly reduced blood pressure, but monitoring is needed to avoid hypotension.
Combining methyldopa with calcium channel blockers enhances blood pressure reduction, which can be beneficial in severe hypertension but raises the risk of excessive hypotension.
