Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hi!

Welcome to health care magic!

I am Dr. Saddiq Ul Abidin. I have read your problem in detail and will try to help you in best way possible.

It would have been more appreciable if you had discussed in detail, all the purposes for which you want to use it.

As based in the question, it seems that you already have some idea about preparation H and the way it acts, that is by contrictng the blood vessels and thus decreasing blood flow to a certain part and causing shrink up look in that area.

As far as its opposites are concerned, there are two type of medicines, one which dilate the veins like sildenafil or nitroglycerine etc., thus making that area congested and swollen, and few which act directly on arteries like hydralazines and calcium chanel blocker which all cause tissue swelling and edema.

But, having said that, let me suggest you one thing very clearly, please try to refrain from use for any such purposes, specially for the cosmetic purposes, as all these drugs are associated with interference to normal body physiology and are hence associated with side effects which can be serious too, at times. Before using any medicine, figure it in your mind that what are you putting at stake here. Your own health and well being is more important than anything else in the world.

Hope this has answered your query, if you have any more questions, feel free to ask. kindly rate me maximum before closing, and leave your feedback if possible.

Regards,
Dr. Saddiq Ul abidin.

would this be safe for a one time thing. I am attempting to pass a body fat index test by tape measures. I use preparation H to shrink my waist as for the the test I need a small waist. As for my neck I need a larger neck this is a one time thing that I will likely use overnight and never again. is it safe for this use?

Brief Answer:
use for neck

Detailed Answer:
Hi! Thanks for sharing the details.

The nitroglycerine sprays or other medicines which can cause local congestion, increases preload on heart, and are not safe at all until it has been advised by your cardiologist, knowing that if your are a cardiac patient, to get some desired results.

Using these on neck vessels is highly unrecommended. You see, neck bears the most important vessels which are supplying your brain. One can't afford to do interference with that.

Also that neck has got, those sensors which keep whole body pressures in a limit. Any interference with that can cause postural drop and syncope.

So the risks weigh more than the benefits.

If there is any other formulation which is told to you, keep this in your mind, that it has to do something with the blood vessels and in neck it is not a good option to avail.

Kindly rate me well, if you found me helpful, before closing the thread. I am deeply sorry for not giving you a helpful suggestion but your health is more important than anything else. Regards. Leave your feedback if possible.
