About Biopril 5mg Tablet
BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET belongs to the group of blood pressure-lowering medications called ‘Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors‘ primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce the risk of having a heart attack, stroke, or heart failure. High blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the pressure in the blood vessels is high. The blood exerts a high pressure on blood vessel’s walls (arteries), leading to hypertension. Heart failure can occur when your heart cannot pump blood sufficiently required to the body’s remaining. Heart attack or stroke is the blockage of blood flow to the heart muscle. The blockade usually occurs due to fat/cholesterol build-up in the coronary artery (supplies blood to the heart).
BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET contains lisinopril, which works by lowering the body’s production of substances that could increase blood pressure. BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET relaxes and widens the blood vessels making it easier for the heart to pump blood to all parts of the body, thereby lowering the raised blood pressure and reducing the risk of having heart failure, heart attack or stroke.
Take BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET with or without food. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet, swallow it as a whole with a glass of water. Take BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET at the same time every day. You may experience certain common side-effects like headache, dizziness, fatigue, and cough in some cases. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. Talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
To treat your condition effectually, continue taking BIOPRIL 5MG TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. Try not to stop taking it on your own as it may cause a sudden increase the blood pressure, chest pain or heart attack.
