Overview Hefcard 50 Tablet

CardioDual 50mg tablets combine two active ingredients to manage chronic heart failure, lessening the chance of hospitalization and mortality. This medication is typically prescribed alongside other heart failure treatments and can be taken with or without food, consistently at the same time daily for optimal effect. Dosage and frequency are determined by your physician and may be adjusted based on your response. Continuous use, as directed, is crucial to maximize benefits; do not discontinue, even if feeling well, to prevent future complications. Potential side effects include swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat (angioedema), low blood pressure, kidney impairment, and elevated potassium levels. To minimize dizziness from potential low blood pressure, rise slowly from lying or sitting positions. Report any persistent or severe side effects to your doctor. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor about all current medications, particularly those for blood pressure or heart conditions, and any existing kidney or liver issues. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and not recommended during breastfeeding. Your doctor may recommend regular blood pressure and kidney function monitoring throughout treatment.
