BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET belongs to the group of blood pressure-lowering medications called 'Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors' primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce the risk of having a heart attack, stroke, or heart failure. High blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the pressure in the blood vessels is high. The blood exerts high pressure on blood vessel walls (arteries), leading to hypertension. Heart failure can occur when your heart cannot pump the blood sufficiently required for the body's remaining. A heart attack or stroke is the blockage of blood flow to the heart muscle. The blockade usually occurs due to fat/cholesterol build-up in the coronary artery (which supplies blood to the heart).
BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET contains lisinopril, which works by lowering the body’s production of substances that could increase blood pressure. BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET relaxes and widens the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood to all parts of the body, lowering the raised blood pressure and reducing the risk of heart failure, heart attack or stroke.
Take BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET with or without food. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet; swallow it as a whole with a glass of water. Take BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET at the same time every day. Sometimes, you may experience common side effects like headache, dizziness, fatigue, and cough. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. Talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
To treat your condition effectually, continue taking BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it.

BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET relaxes and widens the blood vessels making it easier for the heart to pump blood to all body parts. This helps lower blood pressure and the risk of a heart attack or stroke. BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET helps reduce standing and lying down blood pressure without any orthostatic effect (a sudden decrease in blood pressure might occur when a person stands up suddenly). However, when dehydrated, BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET may show an orthostatic effect. Continued usage of BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET reduces the severity of heart failure, hospitalization rate and symptoms such as weakness and shortness of breath. BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET is used alone or in combination with other medicines to treat high blood pressure.

Hypertension: The blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels leading to hypertension. High blood pressure is expressed as systolic/diastolic pressure. Systolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries when the heart beats or pumps out blood. Diastolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries between the heartbeats. Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) by a blood pressure monitor called a sphygmomanometer. Some of the symptoms are headache, dizziness, nosebleeds, altered vision, chest pain, weakness, and shortness of breath. However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none.
