Resodim 15 Tablet

Introduction

Resodim 15 Tablet contains Midodrine, a medicine used for the treatment of low blood pressure (hypotension). It works by narrowing blood vessels and increasing blood pressure, which helps reduce symptoms like dizziness, lightheadedness, and fainting caused by sudden drops in blood pressure. It is especially useful in patients with orthostatic hypotension (a condition where blood pressure drops upon standing).

Benefits

• Some patients may experience headache, nausea, or stomach upset
• Rare but serious side effects include chest pain, irregular heartbeat, difficulty urinating, or high blood pressure while lying down
