Cinod 5 Tablet

Product Overview
Cinod 5 Tablet is used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension). It belongs to a group of medicines called calcium channel blockers, which work by relaxing the blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure. This reduction helps decrease the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

This medication can be prescribed alone or alongside other treatments based on the severity of your condition. It can be taken any time during the day, with or without food, though taking it consistently at the same time daily is recommended. Continue using Cinod 5 as directed by your healthcare provider, even if you feel well, since hypertension often has no obvious symptoms. Stopping the medication without medical advice can lead to worsening of your condition.

In addition to medication, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular physical activity, weight control, and a balanced diet supports effective blood pressure management. Always follow your doctor’s instructions while on this treatment.

Common Side Effects
Some typical side effects include tiredness, swelling in the feet (edema), drowsiness, dizziness, flushing, irregular heartbeat sensations (palpitations), and headaches. If these symptoms persist or cause discomfort, consult your healthcare professional. Notably, swelling and palpitations are generally milder compared to similar medications in this category. Research also indicates that Cinod 5 may provide protective benefits to the kidneys.

Before starting treatment, inform your doctor if you have any history of liver, kidney, or heart conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice prior to use. Additionally, disclose all other medications you are taking, especially those related to blood pressure or heart health. Regular monitoring of blood pressure is important to ensure the medication is working effectively.
