About Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S

Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S belongs to a group of medicines “thiazide diuretic” primarily used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure). Additionally, Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S is used to reduce the risk of heart failure and oedema (a build-up of fluid in the body). A Thiazide diuretic prevents the body from absorbing excessive salt that may cause fluid retention. Hypertension is a medical condition in which the blood exerts high pressure against the walls of blood vessels. Due to this, the heart has to work harder to pump the supply of blood in the whole body. Hypertension can put a person on severe health complications, including stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and aneurysm.

Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S contains Indapamide, and it is only available on prescription. It works by inhibiting the reabsorption of sodium in the body, resulting in an increase in chloride, sodium, and water excretion through urine. The shift in electrolytes and sodium levels reduces vascular resistance and makes the heart work normally. The production of diuresis and removal of excessive salt and fluid helps to lower blood pressure.

Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S is an orally administered drug. You can take Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S with food or without food. It should be swallowed whole with a glass of water.

Most of these side effects of Indinol-1.5Mg Sr 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.

Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S should not be stopped even if you feel better without consulting your doctor, as stopping a sudden intake of Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S may worsen your condition and increase the risk of future heart problems. Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S may lower the potassium level in the body, so ask your doctor about how to add it to the diet. Please inform your doctor if you have had an allergic reaction to Indinol-1.5Mg Sr Tablet 10'S, is pregnant or get pregnant, is breastfeeding, have gout, liver disease, kidney problems, heart failure, diabetes, a heart valve problem, or heart attack.

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.

Oedema: Oedema, also known as fluid overload, occurs due to fluid build-up in spaces between the cells. Oedema can result from a variety of factors. Some oedema reasons are caused by your lifestyle, while an underlying medical problem causes others. Shortness of breath, chest pain (angina), abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmia), and swelling in hands or abdominal areas are the symptoms of oedema.
