INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE
About
INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels. INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE helps lower blood pressure, thereby reducing the chances of heart problems such as heart attack and stroke.
INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE contains Indapamide, Amlodipine, and Perindopril erbumine. Indapamide lowers blood pressure by increasing the amount of urine produced by the kidneys. Amlodipine relaxes the blood vessels, thereby improving blood flow. Perindopril erbumine widens the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood through them. Together, INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE helps treat hypertension.
You are advised to take INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as oedema, headache, dizziness, flushing, and abdominal pain.

INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE belongs to the group of anti-hypertensive medicines used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE helps lower blood pressure, thereby reduces the chances of heart problems such as heart attack and stroke. Indapamide is a diuretic that lowers blood pressure by increasing the amount of urine produced by the kidneys. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the blood vessels, thereby improving blood flow. Perindopril erbumine is an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor that widens the blood vessels; this makes it easier for the heart to pump blood through them. Together, INDAPAMINE+AMLODIPINE+PERINDOPRIL ERBUMINE helps treat hypertension.

Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
High blood pressure (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.
