Efonta 20 Tablet 15's belongs to a class of medicines called antihypertensive drugs primarily taken for the treatment of High blood pressure (hypertension), hypertension caused by kidney disease, and angina (chest pain). Hypertension (high blood pressure) is a lifelong or chronic condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the artery walls becomes high. The higher this blood pressure, the harder the heart has to pump.
Efonta 20 Tablet 15's contains the active substance efonidipine. In patients with high blood pressure, it works by relaxing blood vessels so that blood passes through them more easily. In patients with angina, it prevents chest pain by improving the blood supply to the heart muscle, which then receives more oxygen.
Take Efonta 20 Tablet 15's with or without food as your doctor prescribes with a full glass of water.

Inform your doctor if you are taking any other antihypertensive medicine. You may have common side effects like headache, nausea, stomach discomfort, abdominal pain, hot flashes, palpitations, and facial flushing that usually resolve after some time. You must closely monitor your blood pressure if you have ever had a stroke or heart attack or are currently taking other blood pressure-lowering pills. It is advised to continue taking this drug and not stop taking it suddenly without consulting your doctor.

Blood pressure: Blood pressure measures the force our heart uses to pump blood to all body parts. Hypertension is a chronic condition when blood pressure is too high. This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels), decreasing the blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Raised blood pressure can cause chest pain (angina) and heart attack (when the blood supply to the heart is blocked). High blood pressure also causes brain damage (stroke) and kidney failure. High blood pressure can be diagnosed with the help of a blood pressure monitor. Systolic pressure is the pressure with which the heart pumps blood. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is the pressure when your heart is at the resting stage between heartbeats. If your blood pressure is 140/90 mm of Hg, it means the systolic pressure is 140 mm of Hg, and diastolic pressure is 90 mm of Hg. Ideal blood pressure should be between 90/60 mm of Hg and 120/80 mm of Hg.
