About Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's

Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's belongs to a class of medication called 'anti-hypertensive agents' prescribed alone or with other drugs to lower the raised blood pressure. Hypertension (High blood pressure) is a condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the artery walls becomes so high that it causes health problems, such as heart disease.

Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's contains two medicines: Perindopril (blood pressure-lowering agent) and Indapamide (diuretics or water pills). Perindopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme or ACE inhibitor that lower increased blood pressure by blocking a naturally occurring substance known as angiotensin II (that tightens your blood vessels). It allows these constricted blood vessels to relax and helps lower high blood pressure. On the other hand, Indapamide (diuretic) increases the amount of urine passed out from the kidneys. But unlike other water pills, it does not increase urine output. It effectively reduces excess fluid overload in the body and treats oedema (swelling) associated with heart, liver, kidney, or lung disease. This reduces the heart's workload and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Thus, both help lower high blood pressure, reducing heart attack or stroke chances.

Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's is taken with or without food in a dose and duration as advised by the doctor. The doctor will adjust your dose according to your condition and response to the medicine. Sometimes, you may experience headaches, tiredness, slow heart rate, and nausea. Most of these side effects of Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own. Even if your blood pressure becomes normal, you should not stop using Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's. Doing so may worsen your condition. Tell your doctor if you have had or currently have liver, kidney, or heart problems. In pregnancy and lactation, Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's should only be taken after consulting your doctor. You should regularly monitor your blood pressure and heart rate. Please tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines or are allergic to Coversyl Plus HD Tablet 10's. Reducing the amount of table salt (sodium chloride) in your food often relieves the body's swelling.

Perindopril lowers the increased blood pressure by blocking a naturally occurring substance known as angiotensin II (that tightens your blood vessels).

Disease/Condition Glossary

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.
