Lodoz 5 Tablet

Lodoz 5 Tablet is a combination of two medicines used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). It helps to control blood pressure when a single medication is not effective. It also helps to reduce the chances of any future heart attack and stroke.

Lodoz 5 Tablet is taken with or without food, preferably in the morning to avoid frequent urination at night. Keep taking it for as long as advised by your doctor. Even if you feel well, do not stop this medicine on your own because high blood pressure often has no symptoms. If you stop taking it, your condition may get worse. Maintaining an active lifestyle through regular exercise, managing your weight, and consuming a healthy diet will also help regulate your blood pressure. Follow your doctor’s advice while taking this medicine.

Common side effects of this medicine include nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea, decreased blood pressure, and fatigue. Consult your doctor if any of these bother you, or get worse, or do not go away. Drink plenty of fluids while taking medication to help alleviate muscle weakness, dry mouth, and extreme thirst. Dizziness or headache may occur due to low blood pressure, but this gets better with time.

Before taking it, let your doctor know if you have any liver or kidney problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor for advice before taking this medicine. You also need to inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking, especially those used to treat high blood pressure or heart conditions. You should have your blood pressure, kidney function, blood sugar level, and the levels of salts such as potassium or magnesium checked regularly to make sure that this medicine is working properly.
