About Cilnidipine+chlorthalidone+metoprolol Succinate

Cilnidipine+chlorthalidone+metoprolol Succinate is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Cilnidipine+chlorthalidone+metoprolol Succinate helps lower blood pressure, thereby reducing the chances of heart problems such as heart attack and stroke. High blood pressure is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, nosebleeds, changes in vision, chest pain, weakness and dyspnea (shortness of breath). However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none.
 
Cilnidipine+chlorthalidone+metoprolol Succinate is a combination of three drugs, namely: Cilnidipine, Chlorthalidone, and Metoprolol succinate. Cilnidipine acts on the calcium channels of the blood vessels and suppresses the contraction of blood vessels, thereby helping blood flow smoothly. Chlorthalidone lowers blood pressure and swelling by removing excess fluid and electrolytes via urine. It also helps relax blood vessels and improves blood flow. Metoprolol succinate slows down the heart rate and makes it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. Thereby, Cilnidipine+chlorthalidone+metoprolol Succinate helps treat hypertension.
 
You are advised to take Cilnidipine+chlorthalidone+metoprolol Succinate for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition.

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Hypertension: It is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels, leading to hypertension. 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). High blood pressure also causes brain damage (stroke) and kidney failure. Symptoms of high blood pressure include headache, dizziness, nose bleed, changes in vision, chest pain, weakness and dyspnoea (shortness of breath). However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none.
