Description
Enalapril-TEVA (Enalapril) Tablets 10 mg. №30
Composition:
Each tablet contains 10 mg of enalapril.
Mechanism of Action:
Enalapril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that works by relaxing blood vessels, reducing peripheral resistance, and increasing cardiac output. This mechanism helps lower blood pressure and improve blood flow to the heart.
Pharmacological Properties:
Enalapril-TEVA exerts its pharmacological effects by inhibiting ACE, which leads to decreased angiotensin II production. This results in vasodilation, reduced aldosterone secretion, and ultimately, lowered blood pressure.
Indications for Use:
- Treatment of hypertension
- Management of heart failure
- Improving survival post-myocardial infarction
Contraindications:
Do not use Enalapril-TEVA if:
- You are pregnant
- You have a history of angioedema
- You are allergic to enalapril
- You have bilateral renal artery stenosis
Side Effects:
Common side effects may include dizziness, cough, hypotension, and hyperkalemia. Notify your healthcare provider if you experience any adverse reactions.
Usage Instructions:
The typical dosage is 10 mg once daily, adjusted according to individual patient requirements. Take Enalapril-TEVA as directed by your healthcare professional, with or without food.
Benefits Compared to Analogues:
Enalapril has demonstrated efficacy in lowering blood pressure and improving cardiac function. Clinical studies have indicated its role in reducing the risk of heart failure progression. Compared to other ACE inhibitors, enalapril offers similar effectiveness with potentially fewer side effects in certain patient populations.
Suitable Patient Groups:
Enalapril-TEVA is suitable for adult patients with hypertension, heart failure, or a history of myocardial infarction. Dosage adjustments may be necessary for elderly individuals and those with renal impairment.
Storage Conditions and Shelf Life:
Store Enalapril-TEVA in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Check the packaging for the expiration date and do not use the product beyond that date.
Packaging Description:
