Lonitab 2.5 Tablet

Product introduction
Lonitab 2.5 Tablet is a medication that works as a vasodilator and is mainly prescribed to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and, in certain situations, to treat hair loss. It helps by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, which improves blood circulation and reduces blood pressure. For hair loss, it promotes hair growth by enhancing blood flow to the scalp and hair follicles.

It should be taken exactly as directed by your doctor and for the full prescribed duration. Stopping the medicine suddenly may reverse its benefits. Consistent use is important to maintain its effectiveness.

Lonitab 2.5 Tablet can be taken with or without meals. If prescribed for hypertension, it is often used alongside other medicines to control blood pressure. Visible improvement in hair growth may take several months, so patience and regular use are essential for best results.

Some common side effects include rapid heartbeat, palpitations, low blood pressure, and lightheadedness. These effects are usually mild and temporary, but if they persist or worsen, you should consult your doctor. When used for hair loss, some individuals may experience temporary shedding of hair in the early stages, which is a normal sign that the treatment is working and new hair will grow in its place.

Avoid combining Lonitab with other hair treatments unless advised by your doctor, as this may cause irritation or reduce effectiveness. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, and individuals with heart or kidney problems, must consult their healthcare provider before starting this medicine.

Results are gradual and typically take a few months of consistent use to become noticeable, ultimately leading to healthier and thicker hair.

How Lonitab Tablet Works
Lonitab belongs to a group of medicines known as potassium channel openers. It helps relax and expand small blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow through them, thereby reducing blood pressure. In the case of hair loss, it improves blood circulation around hair follicles, creating a favorable environment for new hair growth.
