- decrease in strength and frequency of contractions of the heart muscle;
- decrease in the oxygen demand of the heart muscle;
- decrease in the amount of blood ejected by the heart into the vessels per unit time;
- decrease in blood pressure;
- increased peripheral vascular resistance;
- an increase in the tone of the smooth muscles of the bronchi;
- increased uterine contractions;
- activation of secretory and motor functions of the digestive system;
- preventing headaches of a vascular nature;
- sedative effect (in high dosages), etc.

The use of Anaprilin in hemangiomas
As shown by recent studies, this drug can be successfully applied for the treatment of hemangiomas. These benign vascular tumors that appear in infancy, in some cases are characterized by aggressive growth, and also by germination into deep dermal and subcutaneous tissues. Anaprilin, blocking vascular receptors, contributes to the narrowing of blood vessels of the hemangioma, blocking the growth factor of vascular tissues, stimulating the process of destruction of capillaries of hemangioma with the replacement of their scar tissue. Thus, the growth of education is suspended and its reverse development is achieved.

The tablet form of the drug is intended for taking before meals (a few minutes before a meal). Injections of the drug are injected intravenously. Anaprilin dosage and duration of its use are selected individually depending on the diagnosis, the severity of the disease, the patient's condition.
