Repalol H Tablet belongs to the class of ‘anti-hypertensive drugs’ primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Hypertension is a medical condition in which the blood exerts high pressure (force exerted by circulating blood) against blood vessel's walls. This condition makes the heart work harder in pumping the blood to the whole body. Hypertension can cause severe health complications, including stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and kidney failure.

Repalol H Tablet consists of three anti-hypertensive medicines: Losartan, Atenolol, and Hydrochlorothiazide. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist which relaxes blood vessels. Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a class of drugs known as diuretics/'water pills.' It works by causing you to make more urine. This helps your body get rid of extra salt and water. Atenolol is a beta blocker that works specifically on the heart to slow down the heart rate. Repalol H Tablet lowers the raised blood pressure and increases the blood flow by preventing the narrowing of blood vessels. Thus, it prevents angina (heart-related chest pain) and uneven heartbeats (arrhythmias). 

In some cases, Repalol H Tablet can cause side effects like sleepiness, taste changes, ankle swelling, headache, dizziness, cold extremities (hands and feet), numbness or tingling in the hands, feet, or lips, tiredness, palpitations (irregular heartbeat) and upset stomach. These side effects are not familiar to everyone and vary individually. If you notice any side effects that are not manageable, please consult your doctor.

Please inform your doctor if you are using any prescription or non-prescription drugs, including vitamins and herbal products. Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Repalol H Tablet or any other medicines, before starting Repalol H Tablet . Inform your doctor if you have low blood pressure, heart, kidney or liver problems, diabetes, oedema (fluid retention), electrolyte imbalance, muscle disorders, dehydration, breathing problems (asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema), and blood circulation problems (Raynaud's disease, peripheral vascular disease). It is advised to consult a doctor if you are a pregnant or breastfeeding mother. Do not stop taking Repalol H Tablet without consulting your doctor since it may worsen your condition and increase the risk of future heart problems. Do not consume alcohol with Repalol H Tablet as it may increase the risk of low blood pressure.

Repalol H Tablet is an anti-hypertensive medicine that treats high blood pressure (hypertension). It contains three anti-hypertensive medicines: Losartan, Atenolol, and Hydrochlorothiazide. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist. It lowers the blood pressure and increases the blood flow by preventing the narrowing of blood vessels. Atenolol is a beta-blocker and is used to treat high blood pressure, angina (chest pain), and uneven heartbeats (arrhythmias). It blocks the action of epinephrine or adrenaline that is released during extreme emotions. This helps in lowering the blood pressure, heart rate and strain on the heart. It reduces the heart rate and makes the heart to pump blood efficiently throughout the body. Atenolol is also used to protect the heart during the treatment of a heart attack. Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to the class of diuretics (water pills) with antihypertensive activity. It inhibits sodium reabsorption from absorbing in the kidneys and increases the excretion of sodium, potassium electrolytes, water, and hydrogen ions.

• Reduce sodium intake in your diet to maintain your blood pressure.
• Eat natural and healthy foods by cutting down on high on sodium processed foods.
• Lose those extra pounds, since being obese can be a risk factor for hypertension.
• Exercise regularly to maintain good heart health.
• Avoid smoking and alcohol intake.
• Chronic stress may also cause high blood pressure. Therefore, avoid stress triggers and make time for yourself to relax and do activities that you enjoy.
• Try to include heart-healthy omega 3 fatty acids containing food drinks in your daily diet. You can also use low-fat cooking oil like olive oil, soybean oil, canola oil, and coconut oil to lower your elevated blood pressure.
• Limit sodium chloride intake (table salt) in your daily diet to 2300 mg per day or less than 1500 mg is ideal for most adults.

• You may be asked by your doctor to undergo blood and urine tests, if you have been suffering from vomiting or dehydration.
• Thiazide diuretics like Hydrochlorothiazide may increase serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels. Hence it is advised to monitor your cholesterol levels regularly.
• Therapy with Repalol H Tablet should be discontinued if you have been suggested tests for parathyroid function in cases like hyperparathyroidism.
• Your doctor may also suggest thyroid function tests since thiazide diuretics like Hydrochlorothiazide may decrease serum PBI (protein-bound iodine) levels.
• Regular monitoring of electrolytes as advised by your doctor

Hypertension is a medical condition in which blood pressure is elevated persistently in the arteries. It is considered as an essential risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and can be caused due to obesity, diabetes, smoking, high salt intake, stress, lack of physical activity or ageing. Blood pressure is measured in the ratio of systolic pressure to diastolic pressure. 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. The ideal blood pressure range lies between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg. If the blood pressure is 140/90 mmHg or greater, it is considered high blood pressure.
