New Revolutionary Injection for High BP: According to WHO i.e. World Health Organization, 1.28 billion people worldwide are victims of high blood pressure. Out of these, 700 million people do not even know that they have high blood pressure. When they go to the doctor for any other problems or when the symptoms increase too much, then it is known that they have hypertension. But before that one may have to undergo fatal complications related to heart like heart attack, stroke, cardiac arrest. It can be controlled with high BP medicine but it has to be eaten daily. But now scientists have prepared such an injection which can get rid of the problem of high BP of crores of people. The interesting thing is that this injection will need to be given only twice a year.

Boon for millions of people

According to the report published on the website of the Global Diabetes Community, scientists have claimed that this injection can prove to be a boon for millions of people who have to struggle with the problem of high blood pressure and they have to eat tablets every day. Does matter. There will be no need to eat tablets daily after injection. The name of this injection is Zilebesiran. It will need to be applied every six months. Researchers tried this injection on more than 100 people suffering from high blood pressure, which has been very successful.

Successful in the clinical trial

In the clinical trial, 80 people suffering from high blood pressure were injected with glibesiran while 30 people were given a placebo (fake injection). In those who were given the original injection, BP came down completely for 6 months. BP of these people remained normal for 6 months. In the trial, it was found that the BP came down more after the injection of this injection than the BP that comes down after taking 200 mg of BP medicine. Researchers said that this injection stops the production of angiotensin. Angiotensin is a protein hormone due to which the blood vessels become dilated and due to this the blood pressure increases. Researchers said that the expected results have come out in the preliminary trial. Now we need to study whether this injection should be given in 3 months or 6 months.
