A member asked:

For what conditions would a vasodilator be used?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

High Blood Pressure: Expect that other docs here will add to this, but simplest condition used is simply high blood pressure. Most blood pressure medications are in essense medications that dialate blood vessels and in the process lower the blood pressure.
