Sartel-Beta 50 Tablet ER

Product introduction
Sartel-Beta 50 Tablet ER is prescribed to manage high blood pressure. By effectively lowering blood pressure, it helps reduce the chances of serious health complications such as heart attacks and strokes. Beginning treatment early with this medicine also improves recovery and survival rates in individuals who have experienced a heart attack.

This medicine should be taken with food at the same time each day to maintain stable levels in the bloodstream. It is important to continue taking it as directed by your doctor, even if you feel fine, because high blood pressure often has no visible symptoms. Stopping the medication suddenly can make your condition worse. Along with the treatment, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy body weight, and following a balanced diet can further help manage your blood pressure effectively.

Some commonly observed side effects of Sartel-Beta 50 Tablet ER may include dizziness, headache, weakness, low blood pressure, slow heartbeat, high potassium levels in the blood, breathlessness, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Avoid consuming foods or supplements that are rich in potassium while on this medication. Since it can sometimes cause dizziness, avoid driving or standing up quickly from a sitting position. Your doctor may recommend regular check-ups to monitor blood pressure, kidney health, electrolytes, and blood sugar levels during the course of treatment.

Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have any existing liver or kidney problems. It is also important to let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or breastfeeding. Additionally, share details of any other medications you are currently taking, especially those related to heart health or blood pressure control.

Uses of Sartel-Beta Tablet ER
Helps in the management and treatment of high blood pressure.

Benefits of Sartel-Beta Tablet ER
High blood pressure occurs when the blood vessels narrow, making it harder for blood to flow smoothly. This forces the heart to work harder, increasing the risk of chest pain, heart attack, or other heart-related issues. Sartel-Beta 50 Tablet ER works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, allowing blood to circulate more freely. It also helps lower the heart rate, which reduces the strain on the heart. Over time, this lowers the chances of heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage.
While you may not feel an immediate change after taking this medicine, regular use as prescribed will help keep your blood pressure under control and improve your long-term health.
