Rauwolfia chips

Function and Efficacy

This product is a total alkaloid preparation of Rauwolfia ovata, and its main component is reserpine. Its antihypertensive effect is similar to that of reserpine, but its effect is milder than that of reserpine. Reserpine depletes the storage of norepinephrine in the peripheral sympathetic nerve terminals, and also depletes the storage of catecholamines and 5-hydroxytryptamine in the brain, heart and other organs. The antihypertensive effect is mainly peripheral, and the peripheral vascular resistance is reduced, the heart rate is slowed down, and the cardiac output is reduced, thereby lowering blood pressure.
