Overview Tistel CT 40mg/12.5mg Tablet

CardioTrol 40mg/12.5mg tablets combine two active ingredients to effectively manage hypertension. This dual-action approach reduces the long-term risk of stroke and heart attack. CardioTrol can be taken with or without food, at the same time daily, with dosage adjusted based on individual response and health status. Continue taking it as prescribed by your physician; discontinuation may increase cardiovascular risk. The medication includes a diuretic component, increasing urination, so avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime. Consistent use is key, even if you feel healthy, as high blood pressure often presents without symptoms. Dizziness is a common side effect; others include nausea, diarrhea, headache, and altered lipid profiles. Increased urination is an expected effect of the diuretic, not a side effect. Consult the patient information leaflet for a complete list of potential side effects, and inform your doctor of any persistent or bothersome issues. Dosage adjustments or alternative treatments may be considered. CardioTrol is not advised during pregnancy, and prior consultation with your physician is necessary if you have kidney, liver, heart, or diabetic conditions. Combining this medication with alcohol may cause excessive blood pressure reduction and increase the risk of side effects.
