In Hypertension (high blood pressure)
Hydralaze 25mg Tablet is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure. It increases the flow of blood and oxygen to the heart and other organs by relaxing blood vessels, thereby, lowering your blood pressure. If your blood pressure is controlled you are less at risk of having a heart attack, stroke, or kidney problems. It must be taken regularly as prescribed to be effective. You do not usually feel any direct benefit from taking this medicine, but it works in the long term to keep you well.
In Treatment of Heart failure

The most common symptoms are breathlessness, tiredness, and swelling in your legs, ankles, abdomen and other parts of your body.
