Moxonidine

Moxonidine is an antihypertensive medication used primarily to treat high blood pressure. Available in tablet form, it works by reducing the activity of the sympathetic nervous system, which helps to lower blood pressure effectively. Moxonidine is especially useful for patients who may not tolerate other antihypertensive medications.
