Abel 40 Tablet

Abel 40 Tablet is a medicine mainly used for controlling high blood pressure and treating heart failure. By keeping blood pressure at a healthy level, it lowers the chances of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems, especially in people living with diabetes.

This tablet can be prescribed as a single treatment or along with other medicines. It may be taken with meals or on an empty stomach, either during the day or at night, but it is best to take it at the same time each day to gain maximum benefit. Even if you start feeling fine or your blood pressure becomes stable, you should not stop taking it suddenly because the problem may come back or worsen. The medicine is commonly prescribed and is considered suitable for long-term use.

Alongside the treatment, making some lifestyle improvements can increase its effectiveness. Regular physical activity, controlling body weight, quitting smoking, reducing alcohol, and lowering salt intake as per medical advice can help in better blood pressure management. Most people tolerate the tablet well, though a few may notice dizziness or headaches, especially when starting treatment. These effects are usually mild. Unlike some other medicines, it is not linked with weight gain.

Before beginning this medicine, people with kidney or liver conditions should inform their doctor. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should also take medical advice before use. During the course of treatment, your doctor may keep a check on your blood pressure, kidney function, and potassium levels.

Main uses of Abel 40 Tablet include the management of high blood pressure, relief in heart failure, and reducing the risk of heart attack or stroke. In high blood pressure, where the pressure of blood against the arteries remains persistently raised, Abel 40 works by widening blood vessels and helping the heart to pump more effectively, which in turn protects vital organs.

Possible unwanted effects usually settle down on their own as the body gets used to the medicine. The most common ones include dizziness, loose stools, or muscle discomfort.

The tablet should be taken in the amount and duration advised by your doctor. Swallow it whole with water and avoid crushing or chewing. It can be consumed with or without food, but maintaining a fixed daily timing is best.

Abel 40 belongs to the group of medicines called angiotensin receptor blockers. It helps relax and open blood vessels by blocking certain natural chemicals that normally make them tight, resulting in smoother blood flow and less strain on the heart.

Special precautions: taking alcohol along with this medicine may cause excessive sleepiness or low blood pressure, so it is not advisable. It is considered unsafe in pregnancy because it can harm the developing baby, and it is probably not safe while breastfeeding as it may pass into milk. People who experience dizziness should avoid driving or using machines. Patients with kidney conditions can usually take it safely, though regular check-ups may be needed. In severe liver problems, caution is required and dose adjustments may be necessary.

If you forget to take a dose, skip it and continue with your usual routine. Do not take an extra dose to make up for the missed one.
