About COVERSYL PLUS 5MG/1.25MG

COVERSYL PLUS combines the power of two active ingredients, perindopril and indapamide, to provide an effective treatment for those suffering from high blood pressure. Ensuring regulated blood pressure is crucial for reducing risks associated with cardiovascular diseases.

Active Ingredients

• Perindopril: An angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, perindopril helps in relaxing blood vessels, ensuring smoother blood flow and thereby reducing blood pressure.
• Indapamide: A diuretic or "water pill", it helps the kidneys eliminate sodium and water from the body, reducing the blood volume and, consequently, the blood pressure.

Health Benefits

• Blood Pressure Regulation: Effectively lowers high blood pressure, reducing the risks of strokes and heart attacks.
• Cardiovascular Protection: Reduces the risk of fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events.
• Kidney Function: By controlling high blood pressure, it indirectly promotes kidney health.

Precautions and Side Effects

• Precautions: Patients with kidney problems, a history of angioedema, or those who are pregnant should consult their doctor before taking this medication. It's also essential to notify the doctor if you're taking any other medication, as drug interactions can occur.
• Side Effects: Some common side effects include dizziness, headache, persistent cough, changes in the amount of urine, unusual tiredness, and high potassium blood levels which can cause muscle weakness and irregular heartbeat. Rare but serious side effects can be kidney problems, severe dizziness, fainting, and liver problems. If any of these side effects persist or worsen, contact your doctor promptly.

Regular monitoring of blood pressure and routine medical check-ups are crucial while on this medication. It's always recommended to follow the prescribed dose and not to stop the medication without consulting the doctor.
