Ciplar 40 Tablet

Product Overview

Ciplar 40 Tablet is used for managing heart-related issues such as preventing angina (chest pain), controlling migraine episodes, and supporting the treatment of pheochromocytoma (a rare tumor in the adrenal glands). It works by reducing the heart’s workload, slowing the heart rate, and relaxing blood vessels, which improves blood circulation and reduces strain on the heart.

The medicine should be taken as prescribed by your doctor, based on the condition being treated and how your body responds. It can be consumed with or without food, but it’s essential to follow the recommended schedule. Even if you feel better, you should continue the treatment as stopping it abruptly may worsen your condition.

Common side effects include fatigue, dizziness, weakness, cold hands or feet, and stomach discomfort. Other possible effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur but usually improve as your body adjusts. If side effects persist or trouble you, consult your healthcare provider.

You should avoid using this medicine if you suffer from asthma, dangerously slow or irregular heartbeat, or certain severe heart problems, including heart failure. If you have kidney or liver disease or chronic respiratory conditions such as COPD, consult your doctor before starting this medication. Alcohol should be avoided as it may enhance the side effects. Do not drive if the medicine causes dizziness or affects your alertness. Discuss the safety of this medication with your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Benefits

For Angina:
Ciplar 40 Tablet helps relax blood vessels, allowing easier blood flow and ensuring that the heart receives adequate oxygen. This reduces the likelihood of experiencing chest pain and can improve your capacity for physical activity. Regular use as directed enhances its effectiveness.

For Other Conditions:
By blocking the effects of adrenaline and noradrenaline, the medicine helps prevent rapid heartbeats, reduce anxiety symptoms, and manage migraines. It can also be helpful during surgery for pheochromocytoma by preventing dangerous spikes in blood pressure.

Fatigue

Weakness

Cold hands and feet

How to Use

Take the medicine exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Swallow the tablet whole; do not chew or crush it. Ciplar 40 Tablet may be taken with or without food, but taking it at the same time daily is recommended. Avoid high-fat meals like olive oil, nuts, dark chocolate, butter, and meat when taking the medicine, as they may interfere with its effectiveness.

How It Works

Ciplar 40 Tablet contains propranolol, a beta-blocker that slows down the heart rate and helps the heart pump blood more efficiently. It also widens blood vessels, improving circulation and preventing conditions like angina and migraines. By blocking adrenaline’s action, it reduces heart rate increases linked to stress and anxiety.
