Cilacar T 80 Tablet

Product Overview
Cilacar T 80 Tablet is a combination medication that helps manage high blood pressure. It works by relaxing the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. This helps reduce the risk of serious health problems like heart attacks and strokes.

You can take this medicine with or without food, but it’s best to take it at the same time every day to get the maximum benefit. Your doctor will decide the correct dose based on your condition and response to treatment. Even if you start to feel better, continue taking it as prescribed. Stopping suddenly can increase the risk of complications. Along with medication, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, avoiding smoking, and following a low-salt, low-fat diet can improve its effectiveness.

Some people may experience side effects like swelling in the ankles or feet, headache, dizziness, sleepiness, fatigue, digestive issues, or changes in taste. Since it may cause drowsiness or affect your alertness, avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how your body responds to the medicine. If any side effect persists or causes concern, consult your doctor.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney problems or are severely dehydrated. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before using this medication. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and kidney function may be necessary during the treatment.
