3). calcium channel blockers
Calcium channel blockers are the categories of the drugs which prevent the entry of the calcium ions in the cells especially of the heart and arteries.. And thus used in lowering of the blood pressure. Further the calcium ions are associated with contraction of the heart and the arteries. And thus by blocking the calcium channels, relaxes the blood vessels, resulting in lowering of the blood pressure.
Common examples of calcium channel blockers are:
Amlodipine, nifedipine and Nicardipine.

Pharmacology - Beta-Blockers: Beta-blockers are a group of drugs which target specific receptors in the human body, inhibiting the ability of these receptors to bind norepinephrine; list four targets in the cardiovascular system for this group of drugs and clearly and concisely explain their mechanism of action for lowering blood pressure: I'm having a hard time figuring this out, any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!!
