Overview Cangina H 12.5mg/40mg Tablet

Hypertensia Duo 12.5mg/40mg tablets combine two active ingredients to manage hypertension through complementary mechanisms. Untreated high blood pressure significantly increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney disease. Hypertensia Duo can be taken with or without food; dosage is individualized and should be taken consistently at the same time daily, as directed by your physician. Continue treatment as prescribed, even if feeling well, as high blood pressure often lacks noticeable symptoms. The medication includes a diuretic, increasing urination, so avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime. Discontinuing treatment elevates the risk of cardiovascular events. Common side effects include dizziness, weakness, headache, fatigue, chest discomfort, and swelling. Increased urination is expected; however, other side effects, though rare, may occur. Elevated intraocular pressure, potentially leading to permanent eye damage if untreated, is a possibility. Review the accompanying patient information leaflet and report any persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor, who may adjust your dose or medication. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Consult your physician prior to use if you have liver or kidney disease, heart conditions, or diabetes. Consuming alcohol may exacerbate hypotensive effects and increase the likelihood of side effects.
