  2. Hypertensive encephalopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertensive_encephalopathy

    In hypertensive encephalopathy, generally the blood pressure is greater than 200/130 mmHg. [1] Occasionally it can occur at a BP as low as 160/100 mmHg. [4] This can occur in kidney failure, those who rapidly stop blood pressure medication, pheochromocytoma, and people on a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) who eat foods with tyramine. [2]

  3. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_reversible...

    The name of the condition includes the word "posterior" because it predominantly, though not exclusively, affects the back of the brain (the parietal and occipital lobes). Common underlying causes are severely elevated blood pressure, kidney failure, severe infections, certain medications, some autoimmune diseases, and pre-eclampsia.

  5. Antihypertensive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antihypertensive

    Central alpha agonists lower blood pressure by stimulating alpha-receptors in the brain which open peripheral arteries easing blood flow. These alpha 2 receptors are known as autoreceptors which provide negative feedback in neurotransmission (in this case, the vasoconstriction effects of adrenaline). Central alpha agonists, such as clonidine ...

  9. Phentolamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phentolamine

    The primary application for phentolamine is for the control of hypertensive emergencies, most notably due to pheochromocytoma. [5]It also has usefulness in the treatment of cocaine-induced cardiovascular complications, where one would generally avoid β-blockers (e.g. metoprolol), as they can cause unopposed α-adrenergic mediated coronary vasoconstriction, worsening myocardial ischemia and ...
