High Blood Pressure. By lowering blood pressure, blood pressure medications (like clonidine) are thought to decrease the risks that occur with long-term high blood pressure (see Effects of High Blood Pressure). Clonidine does not, however, cure high blood pressure. It can be used alone or in combination with other blood pressure medications.
Add your answer. Do s-waves move side to side and do p-waves move up and down? In one book it says p-waves move up and down and another it says p-waves move side to side. And also s-waves, one book says they move up and down and another side to side! so what is it? and which causes the most damage?
P waves are pressure waves that travel faster than other waves through the earth to arrive at seismograph stations firstly, hence the name Primary. These waves can travel through any type of material, including fluids, and can travel at nearly twice the speed of S waves.
