This allows the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. • Cilnidipine acts by relaxing the blood vessels. This reduces the heart's workload and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. • Thus, collectively, both help lower high blood pressure, reducing heart attack or stroke chances.
