Ivabrad 5 Tablet

Product Description
Ivabrad 5 Tablet contains ivabradine, a medicine used to manage certain heart conditions such as chronic stable angina and heart failure. It works by slowing down the heart rate, which reduces the oxygen demand of the heart muscle and helps it work more efficiently. This makes it useful in reducing chest pain episodes and improving heart function in patients with weakened heart pumping ability.

Benefits
The tablet helps lower the frequency of angina attacks, allowing patients to perform daily activities with less chest discomfort. In heart failure, it improves the pumping efficiency of the heart, reduces hospitalization risk, and supports a better quality of life. By controlling the heart rate, it lessens strain on the heart and supports long-term cardiovascular health.

Possible Side Effects
Some patients may notice temporary visual effects such as brightness in vision, especially when moving from dark to light. Dizziness, headache, slow heartbeat, and fatigue may also occur. Rarely, irregular heart rhythm, low blood pressure, or allergic reactions may appear. Any persistent or severe symptom should be reported to the doctor.

How to Use
The tablet should be taken exactly as prescribed, usually with meals, at the same time each day. It must be swallowed whole with water and should not be crushed or chewed. Regular monitoring of heart rate and blood pressure is important during treatment to ensure safe and effective use.

What to Avoid
Alcohol should be limited as it can increase dizziness and heart-related side effects. Grapefruit or its juice should not be consumed since it may alter the action of the medicine. Patients should avoid stopping the medicine suddenly without consulting their doctor. Driving or operating machinery should be avoided if visual disturbances or dizziness occur.

Precautions
Patients with very low blood pressure, slow heart rate, or serious heart rhythm problems should inform their doctor before using this medicine. It must be used cautiously in those with liver problems. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should avoid this medicine unless specifically recommended by a healthcare professional. Regular follow-up is essential to adjust the dose and monitor heart health.
