CTD 6.25 Tablet (Chlorthalidone 6.25mg)

CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s belongs to a group of medicines known as diuretics (water pills which increase the production of urine) primarily used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and oedema (a build-up of fluid in the body).

Hypertension or high blood pressure is a lifelong or chronic condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the blood vessel (arteries wall) increases. Higher this blood pressure, harder the heart has to pump. As a result, it leads to heart diseases, irregular heartbeat, and other complications. Oedema may occur in case of high blood pressure where fluids of the body get trapped in the tissues of the hands, arms, feet, ankles, and legs leading to its swelling.

CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s works by increasing the amount of urine passed out from the kidneys. It effectively reduces excess fluid levels in the body and treats oedema (swelling) associated with heart, liver, kidney, or lung disease. This, in turn, reduces the workload on the heart and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. So, it helps to lower high blood pressure, reducing the chances of heart attack or stroke.

You can take CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s with food or empty stomach. Your doctor will tell you how to take CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience headache, nausea, or dizziness. Most of these side effects of CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own. Tell your doctor about this, as it may cause a rise in blood pressure and can increase the risk of getting heart complications like stroke and heart diseases. Inform your doctor if you are suffering from any kidney or liver or heart disease or are diabetic. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please tell your doctor so that the dosage of CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s can be prescribed accordingly. Taking CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s during pregnancy may cause side effects like jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), unexplained bleeding, low blood sugar, or an electrolyte imbalance in the newborn baby.

Reducing the amount of table salt (sodium chloride) in your food often relieves the swelling of the body.

Hypertension (high blood pressure), Oedema (swelling due to fluid retention)

When you take CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s, the blood vessels in your body will be relaxed, and it will help in lowering the raised blood pressure. Also, it widens the blood vessels (lining of arteries wall) and helps to improve the blood flow. It helps in losing out excess fluids from the body by increasing the production of urine. This reduces the workload on the heart and makes the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. Thus, it helps to lower high blood pressure, reducing the chances of heart attack or stroke. CTD 6.25mg Tablet 15’s also helps decrease fluid buildup, which reduces inflammation or swelling. In addition, this relieves oedema and helps you carry out your daily activities more efficiently.
