Overview Olmibid CT 40mg/12.5mg Tablet

Cardio-Tense 40mg/12.5mg 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. Cardio-Tense can be taken with or without food; dosage is personalized and should be taken consistently at the same time daily, as directed by your physician. Continue treatment as prescribed; discontinuation may raise your risk of cardiovascular events. This medication includes a diuretic, promoting increased urination, so avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime. Regular use, even during periods of feeling well, is crucial for optimal benefit. High blood pressure often lacks noticeable symptoms. Dizziness is the most common side effect; others include fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, headache, and potentially low blood pressure. Increased urination is the intended effect of the diuretic component and aids in blood pressure control. While uncommon, other side effects are possible. Review the accompanying patient information leaflet and inform your doctor about any persistent or bothersome side effects; dosage adjustments or alternative treatments may be considered. This medication is not advised during pregnancy and requires prior consultation with your doctor if you have pre-existing kidney, liver, heart, or diabetic conditions. Alcohol consumption can further reduce blood pressure, potentially exacerbating side effects.
