CTD-12.5 TABLET

CTD-12.5 Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure and oedema (a build-up of fluid in the body). Hypertension or high blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the artery wall is high. Higher blood pressure leads to heart disease, irregular heartbeat and other complications like oedema (fluids of the body get trapped in the tissues of the hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs, leading to swelling).

CTD-12.5 Tablet contains Chlortalodone, which works by increasing the amount of urine that is passed out from the kidneys. Thereby it helps treat hypertension and oedema.

Take CTD-12.5 Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. In some cases, you may experience headaches, nausea or dizziness, which usually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not stop taking this medicine without completing the prescribed dose, as abrupt stopping it may cause a rise in blood pressure and can increase the risk of getting heart disease and stroke. Inform your doctor if you are suffering from any kidney, liver, or heart disease. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking CTD-12.5 Tablet . Also, tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines or are allergic to this medicine.

Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure) and oedema (swelling due to fluid retention).

When you take CTD-12.5 Tablet , the blood vessels in your body will be relaxed, which will help lower the raised blood pressure. Also, it widens the blood vessels (lining of arteries wall) and helps to improve the blood flow. It helps in losing excess fluids from the body by increasing the production of urine. This reduces the workload on the heart and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Thus, it helps to lower high blood pressure, reducing the chances of heart attack or stroke. CTD-12.5 Tablet also helps decrease fluid buildup, which reduces inflammation or swelling. In addition, this relieves oedema and helps you carry out your daily activities more efficiently.

Swallow it as a whole with water; do not crush, break or chew it.
