EXFORGE HCT 5/160/25MG X 28 TABS

Exforge HCT 5/160/25mg Tablets (28s) – Triple-Action Blood Pressure Control

Exforge HCT is a combination antihypertensive medication that contains three active ingredients: amlodipine (5mg), valsartan (160mg), and hydrochlorothiazide (25mg). Together, these ingredients work to lower high blood pressure through multiple mechanisms, helping to reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage in people with uncontrolled hypertension.

Ingredients

• Active Ingredients: Amlodipine 5mg, Valsartan 160mg, Hydrochlorothiazide 25mg
• Inactive Ingredients: May include microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, colloidal silica, and film-coating agents

How Exforge HCT Works

This medication combines three classes of blood pressure-lowering agents:

• Amlodipine – a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels
• Valsartan – an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that prevents blood vessels from narrowing
• Hydrochlorothiazide – a diuretic that helps remove excess salt and water from the body

By targeting different pathways, Exforge HCT delivers more effective and sustained blood pressure control than using a single medication alone.

Uses of Exforge HCT

• Treatment of high blood pressure (essential hypertension)
• Patients not adequately controlled by dual therapy with amlodipine and valsartan
• Helps reduce risk of cardiovascular complications related to uncontrolled hypertension

Dosage and Administration

Take one tablet once daily, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food. Do not crush or chew. Always follow your doctor’s dosage instructions and do not adjust the dose without medical advice.

Precautions

• Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding
