Composition
Each tablet contains:

Mechanism of Action
Coripren tablets combine the actions of enalapril and lercanidipine to effectively lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension. Enalapril inhibits the angiotensin-converting enzyme, leading to vasodilation and reduced blood pressure. Lercanidipine, a calcium channel blocker, further relaxes blood vessels, enhancing the antihypertensive effect.
