Description
Irovel 150mg Tablets contain Irbesartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker, primarily used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure). By blocking the action of a natural substance that narrows blood vessels, Irbesartan helps to relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure. This medication not only aids in managing hypertension but also helps reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack, contributing to overall cardiovascular health.
Dosage/Direction: The typical starting dose for adults is one 150mg tablet taken once daily. Depending on individual blood pressure response, a healthcare provider may adjust the dosage to optimize management. It is recommended to take the tablet at the same time each day for consistency, and it can be taken with or without food.
Side Effects: Common side effects may include dizziness, fatigue, and gastrointestinal issues such as nausea or diarrhea. Rare but serious side effects might include low blood pressure, renal dysfunction, or allergic reactions. Patients should seek medical advice if side effects persist or severity increases.
