Cilnep T 40mg Strip Of 10 Tablets
Description
Cilnep T tablet is a combination medication prescribed for the management of high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. The active components are cilnidipine and telmisartan. This medicine works by relaxing your blood vessels, which allows your heart to pump blood more easily throughout your body. This relaxation of the blood vessels effectively suppresses their contraction, leading to a reduction in your overall blood pressure.
It is crucial to take Cilnep T tablet exactly as your doctor has directed, usually at a regular time each day for the best results. High blood pressure is a serious condition that, if left untreated, can severely impact vital organs such as your brain, kidneys, and blood vessels. Consistent use of this medication, combined with healthy lifestyle changes, is essential for effectively controlling your blood pressure.
Your doctor determines the appropriate dosage and duration of treatment based on your individual health assessment. Lifestyle modifications are a significant part of managing high blood pressure and should be adopted alongside taking this medication. These include maintaining a healthy weight, eating a diet low in fat and salt, exercising regularly, limiting alcohol intake, and completely avoiding smoking.
You must never stop taking Cilnep T tablet suddenly without consulting your doctor first. Abruptly discontinuing the medication can result in serious heart-related issues, such as chest pain (angina), a heart attack, or severe blood pressure problems. Your doctor will gradually reduce your dose over a period of weeks before recommending cessation of the treatment.
