Overview Telfost H 40mg/12.5mg Tablet

Cardio-Duo 40mg/12.5mg tablets combine two blood pressure-regulating agents, offering effective control when single medications prove insufficient. This combination therapy reduces the long-term risk of stroke and heart attack by managing hypertension. Cardio-Duo can be taken with or without food, at the same time daily, as directed by your physician. Continue taking it as prescribed; discontinuation increases cardiovascular risks. The medication includes a diuretic component, increasing urination; therefore, avoid doses within four hours of bedtime. Consistent use is crucial, even if feeling well, to maintain blood pressure control. Hypertension often presents without symptoms. Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue, nausea, and altered heartbeat, although frequent urination is an expected therapeutic effect, not a side effect. Less frequent side effects are possible; consult the accompanying patient information leaflet and your physician for any persistent or bothersome symptoms. Dosage adjustments or alternative treatments may be considered. Avoid potassium supplements and salt substitutes unless advised by your doctor. This medication is unsuitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Consult your doctor before use if you have kidney, liver, or heart conditions, or diabetes. Alcohol consumption may exacerbate blood pressure lowering and side effects.
