Description:
CTD-T AM 12.5/80/5 Tablet is a combination medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). It helps lower blood pressure, reducing the risk of future heart attacks and strokes. When used regularly, along with a healthy lifestyle, it can effectively control blood pressure.
You can take this tablet with or without food, and the dosage will depend on your specific condition and response to the medication. It’s important to take it at the same time each day to help maintain consistent effects. Since the medicine contains a diuretic (water pill), it may increase urination. To minimize frequent nighttime urination, try taking it earlier in the day. It is crucial to continue taking this medicine as prescribed by your doctor, even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often doesn’t present symptoms. Discontinuing the medication could increase your risk of heart attack or stroke.
Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue, coughing, nausea, and swelling (edema). If any of these symptoms worsen or don’t go away, consult your doctor for guidance.
Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medicine. Additionally, make sure to tell your doctor about any other medications you are taking, particularly those for high blood pressure or heart conditions. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure, kidney function, electrolyte levels, and blood sugar levels is essential to ensure the medicine works effectively and safely.
