Arkapres 100 Tablet 10 contains Clonidine (100 mcg), which works on the body as follows:

• Binds to Alpha-2 Adrenergic Receptors: Clonidine attaches to specific receptors in your brainstem called alpha-2 adrenergic receptors, which helps control the activity of your nervous system.

• Reduces Sympathetic Outflow: By stimulating these receptors, it decreases the signals from your central nervous system that would otherwise increase blood pressure and heart rate.

• Decreases Peripheral Vascular Resistance: This medicine relaxes and widens your blood vessels, reducing the resistance to blood flow throughout your body.

• Lowers Heart Rate: Clonidine slows down your heart rate, which contributes to an overall reduction in blood pressure.
