CTD-AZ 12.5/40 Tablet 1*10

CTD-AZ 40/12.5 Tablet is a combination medicine used to manage hypertension (high blood pressure). It contains Azilsartan medoxomil, an angiotensin receptor blocker, and Chlorthalidone, a diuretic. Together, they help relax blood vessels, improve blood flow, and remove excess water and electrolytes from the body. This combination helps lower blood pressure, reduce fluid retention, and decrease the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney complications.
