Nulong-Trio Tablet

Product introduction
Nulong-Trio Tablet is a combination medication prescribed to manage high blood pressure when a single medicine is not sufficient to control it. By reducing elevated blood pressure, it helps in lowering the risk of serious complications such as heart attacks and strokes.

This medicine is best taken with food, and the exact dosage depends on your health condition and how your body responds to treatment. It is advisable to take it at the same time each day for maximum benefit. Since it contains a diuretic (water pill) that increases urine production, it should not be taken within four hours of bedtime to prevent disturbed sleep. Even if you feel fine, continue taking it as stopping the medication suddenly may increase your chances of developing heart-related problems or stroke because high blood pressure often has no visible symptoms.

Some common side effects you might experience include swelling in the ankles, headache, dizziness, tiredness, changes in taste, or vertigo. If these effects are bothersome or persistent, consult your doctor. Staying hydrated can help reduce problems like muscle cramps, dry mouth, or excessive thirst that may occur while taking this medicine.

Before starting this treatment, inform your doctor if you have any kidney or liver issues. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use. It is also important to mention any other medicines you are taking, especially those for heart disease or blood pressure. Regular check-ups to monitor your blood pressure, kidney function, blood sugar levels, and electrolytes are recommended to ensure the medicine is working safely and effectively.

Uses of Nulong-Trio Tablet
Used to manage and control high blood pressure (hypertension).

Benefits of Nulong-Trio Tablet
This medicine works by relaxing blood vessels so that blood flows more smoothly throughout the body. It also helps remove excess water and salt through urine, which further reduces blood pressure. By keeping blood pressure under control, it lowers the chances of serious health problems like strokes, heart attacks, or kidney damage. Since high blood pressure usually does not cause symptoms, you may not feel an immediate benefit, but taking this medication regularly helps maintain long-term health.

How to take Nulong-Trio Tablet
Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not chew or crush it. It should be taken with food at the dose recommended by your doctor.

How it works
Nulong-Trio Tablet combines three medicines: olmesartan medoxomil, cilnidipine, and chlorthalidone. Olmesartan belongs to a class of drugs called angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and helps relax blood vessels. Cilnidipine is a calcium channel blocker (CCB) that further aids in widening blood vessels, making it easier for blood to circulate. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that helps the body eliminate extra water and certain salts through urine while also relaxing blood vessels over time. Together, they effectively lower blood pressure and improve overall circulation.
