Prolomet AM 25 Tablet PR

Prolomet AM 25 Tablet PR is a medicine that combines two active ingredients that help in managing high blood pressure and heart rate. It is also given for chest pain related to the heart, irregular heartbeat, and long-term heart failure.

You can take this tablet at any time of the day, with or without meals, but it is better to take it at the same time every day for best results. Continue taking it for as long as your doctor recommends. Even if you start feeling well, do not stop using the medicine suddenly, as uncontrolled blood pressure may lead to serious health issues. Along with the medication, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and weight management is important for better results.

Some people may experience side effects such as headache, swelling in the ankles, dizziness, slow heartbeat, nausea, skin rashes, or feelings of depression. This medicine can also cause sleepiness or make you feel lightheaded, so avoid driving or doing tasks that require alertness until you know how it affects you. It might increase the potassium levels in your blood, so you should avoid potassium-rich food and supplements while on this treatment. Regular check-ups to monitor blood pressure, kidney health, and electrolyte balance may be advised.

Before starting the medicine, inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney-related problems. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, seek medical advice first. Also, share details of any other medicines you are taking, especially those used for heart problems or blood pressure control.
