About Arkamin H Tablet

Arkamin H Tablet is a combination of blood pressure-lowering medicine primarily used to treat high blood pressure. High blood pressure is a condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high, leading to hypertension. Arkamin H Tablet aids in lowering blood pressure to normal, thereby helping reduce the risk of having a stroke, heart attack, other heart problems, or kidney problems in future.

Arkamin H Tablet contains Clonidine and Hydrochlorothiazide. Clonidine is a vasodilator medicine that works by stimulating alpha receptors in the brain. This sends signals that help to relax blood vessels in the heart, which reduces your blood pressure and heart rate.

This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels) and decreased blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Blood pressure is the measurement of the heart's force to pump blood to all body parts.
