About Triplixam 4mg/1.25mg/5mg Tablet

Triplixam 4mg/1.25mg/5mg Tablet belongs to the group of anti-hypertensive medicines used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels. Triplixam 4mg/1.25mg/5mg Tablet helps lower the blood pressure, thereby reduces the chances of heart problems such as heart attack and stroke.  
 
Triplixam 4mg/1.25mg/5mg Tablet contains Indapamide, Amlodipine, and Perindopril erbumine. Indapamide lowers blood pressure by increasing the amount of urine produced by the kidneys. Amlodipine relaxes the blood vessels, thereby improves blood flow. Perindopril erbumine widens the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood through them. Together, Triplixam 4mg/1.25mg/5mg Tablet helps treat hypertension.

Disease/Condition Glossary

High blood pressure (hypertension): It is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels leading to hypertension. 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. Symptoms of high blood pressure include headache, dizziness, nose bleed, changes in vision, chest pain, weakness and dyspnoea (shortness of breath). However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none.
