Vessels: Stimulants constrict arterioles and raise blood pressure and in time damage these vessels causing kidney damage among other complications like heart enlargement, retinal and brain damage including dementia. This vasocontriction can be reversed with antihypertensive medications and avoidance of excess stimulation from alcohol,caffeine,nicotine and also by weight and salt reduction. CBB is one class
