Overview Refra 2.5mg Tablet

Droxia 2.5mg tablets are indicated for the management of hypotension. They're prescribed for individuals experiencing postural hypotension – dizziness upon standing after prolonged sitting or lying. The medication achieves this by constricting blood vessels, thereby increasing blood pressure. Droxia 2.5mg tablets may be administered with or without food, ideally during daytime hours when postural changes are most frequent. However, avoid taking the medication if prolonged recumbency is anticipated. Always adhere to your physician's dosage instructions and never discontinue use without their consultation. Regular blood pressure monitoring is crucial during treatment. Potential side effects include headache, nausea, rash, urinary retention, dysuria, and flushing. Supine hypertension (elevated blood pressure while lying down) may also occur. Report any bothersome side effects to your doctor immediately. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your physician of any pre-existing kidney or liver conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical advice before use. Complete disclosure of all other medications currently being taken is essential. Your doctor may order kidney and liver function tests before and throughout your treatment course.
