TRIBENZOR works 3 different ways to help lower blood pressure
The reason why TRIBENZOR can help lower your high blood pressure is the way that it works. TRIBENZOR combines 3 medicines. Each works to
lower blood pressure in a different way. TRIBENZOR has a specific medical agent designed to block angiotensin II, a natural chemical in your body
that can raise blood pressure by causing blood vessels to tighten and narrow. By blocking this chemical, TRIBENZOR widens and relaxes blood
vessels to help lower blood pressure.
Second, TRIBENZOR has a medicine that works directly on the specific muscles that tighten and narrow blood vessels to relax and widen
vessels even more.
Finally, TRIBENZOR also has a medicine that helps reduce water content, since retaining too much water can raise blood pressure.
