Aldomet is a prescriptionhypertensionmedication. It works by reducing the concentration of neurotransmitters in the brain to lower blood pressure and reduce risk of hypertension complications like heart problems, stroke, kidney damage, and vision loss. The most serious risk of hypertension is atherosclerosis, which is detected through plaque build-up and narrowing arteries. This leads to reduction of blood flow to organs and other parts of the body. Aldomet takes effect within 4-6 hours and is best taken in the evening as it can be sedating for some people. You can buy Aldomet with a doctor’s prescription at your local pharmacy, but a better price for Aldomet medication may be available when your order medication online from Canada Pharmacy.
