Lotevan Plus 5Mg/160Mg/25Mg 30 Tab

Product Overview

Lotevan Plus 5mg/160mg/25mg is a sophisticated triple-combination medication designed to effectively manage essential hypertension (high blood pressure). It combines three powerful active ingredients: Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker; Valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB); and Hydrochlorothiazide, a thiazide diuretic. This synergistic blend works to relax blood vessels, reduce the volume of blood, and decrease the heart's workload, resulting in a significant reduction in blood pressure. It is indicated for patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled by dual therapy, or as an initial therapy when the likelihood of achieving target blood pressure is high with a triple combination.

Benefits of Use

* **Comprehensive Blood Pressure Control:** Targets multiple pathways involved in blood pressure regulation for potent antihypertensive effects. * **Reduced Cardiovascular Risk:** Effectively lowering blood pressure helps mitigate the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage. * **Convenience:** A single tablet combines three active ingredients, simplifying treatment regimens and potentially improving patient adherence compared to taking multiple pills. * **Proven Efficacy:** Each component is a well-established antihypertensive agent, and their combination provides enhanced efficacy for uncontrolled hypertension.

How to Use

1. Always take Lotevan Plus exactly as prescribed by your physician. 2. The usual dose is one tablet once daily. 3. Take the tablet with a glass of water, either with or without food. 4. It is recommended to take your dose at approximately the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels. 5. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablets; swallow them whole. 6. Do not stop taking Lotevan Plus without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well, as your blood pressure may rise again.
