Description
Irovel 300mg Tablets contain Irbesartan, a potent angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) used primarily for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). By inhibiting the action of angiotensin II, a substance that constricts blood vessels, Irovel helps relax and widen blood vessels, leading to lowered blood pressure. This medication is also indicated for patients with diabetic nephropathy, assisting in protecting the kidneys from damage related to high blood pressure and diabetes.
Dosage/Direction: The usual starting dose for Irovel 300mg is one tablet taken once daily, preferably at the same time each day. Depending on individual blood pressure management, healthcare providers may adjust the dose as needed. It can be taken with or without food, but a consistent routine is beneficial for optimal efficacy.
Side Effects: Common side effects may include dizziness, fatigue, hypotension, and gastrointestinal disturbances like nausea. Less common but serious side effects can involve renal impairment, electrolyte imbalances, and allergic reactions. Patients should consult their healthcare provider if they experience significant or persistent side effects.
