About Apresol Plus Tablet

Apresol Plus Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called vasodilators used to treat heart failure.

In this condition, the heart becomes too weak and cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to the organs and tissues of the body.

Isosorbide dinitrate relaxes the heart's muscles and widens the heart's veins and arteries for easy flow of blood to every part of the body. Hydralazine helps lower raised blood pressure by relaxing and widening the heart's muscles. Together, Apresol Plus Tablet helps treat heart failure.
