About Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet

Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet belongs to a group of antihypertensive medicines used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). It is also effective in treating moderate to severe heart failure and angina (heart-related chest pain), thereby reducing the risk of heart attack or stroke in adults. High blood pressure is a condition in which the force of blood against the artery walls is very high. It will be an addition to the workload of the heart and arteries. If it continues for a long time, the heart and arteries may not function properly and damage the heart, brain, and kidneys' blood vessels, resulting in heart failure, stroke, or kidney failure.

Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet contains Carvedilol and Ivabradine combination. Carvedilol acts by relaxing blood vessels by blocking the action of certain natural substances like epinephrine or adrenaline. Ivabradine works by reducing the heart rate by a few beats per minute.  In this way, it lowers the heart's requirement for oxygen, especially in situations where an angina attack can happen. Thus, it lowers the raised blood pressure and keeps the heartbeat slowly reducing with less force, reducing the risk of having a stroke, a heart attack, or other heart problems.

Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet should be taken as prescribed. The dose of the medicine will be decided by your doctor based on your medical condition. In some cases, Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet may cause certain side effects such as diarrhoea, headache, weight gain, slow heartbeat, dry eyes, tiredness, dizziness, or low blood pressure. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet should be avoided if allergic to it. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please inform your doctor before taking this medicine. Avoid taking Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet if you have bronchitis, asthma, emphysema (a lung condition causing shortness of breath), severe liver disease, heart block, slow heart rate, or sick sinus syndrome (abnormal heart rhythms caused by malfunction of the heart’s natural pacemaker). Irban-Beta 5/6.25 mg Tablet is not recommended for children below 18 years of age. Inform your doctor if you have diabetes, coronary artery disease, fluid retention, thyroid disorder, angina (chest pain), kidney disease, slow heartbeats, Raynaud’s syndrome (a circulatory problem), or pheochromocytoma (tumor in the adrenal glands), or undergoing any surgery.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Hypertension: Blood pressure is the measurement of the force that the heart uses to pump blood to all parts of the body. Hypertension is a chronic condition in which blood pressure is too high. This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels), decreasing the blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Raised blood pressure can cause chest pain (angina) and heart attack (when the blood supply to the heart is blocked). Additionally, high blood pressure also causes brain damage (stroke) and kidney failure. High blood pressure can be diagnosed with the help of a blood pressure monitor or sphygmomanometer. Systolic pressure is the pressure when the heart pumps blood out. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is the pressure when your heart is at the resting stage between heartbeats. If your blood pressure is 140/90 mm of Hg, it means the systolic pressure is 140 mm of Hg, and diastolic pressure is 90 mm of Hg. Normal blood pressure lies between 90/60 mm of Hg and 120/80 mm of Hg. If the blood pressure is 140/90 mmHg or greater, it is considered high blood pressure.
