Description
Enalozid Mono Tablets
Composition
Each tablet contains:
- Enalapril 10 mg
- Hydrochlorothiazide 10 mg
Mechanism of Action
Enalozid Mono tablets combine the antihypertensive effects of enalapril, an ACE inhibitor, with the diuretic effects of hydrochlorothiazide. Enalapril inhibits the angiotensin-converting enzyme, leading to vasodilation and reduced blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide acts on the kidneys to increase the excretion of sodium and water, further lowering blood pressure.
Pharmacological Properties
The pharmacological properties of Enalozid Mono tablets involve dual mechanisms to effectively lower blood pressure through vasodilation and diuresis.
Indications for Use
Enalozid Mono tablets are indicated for the treatment of hypertension in patients who require both enalapril and hydrochlorothiazide for blood pressure management.
Contraindications
Avoid using Enalozid Mono tablets if you have a known allergy to enalapril, hydrochlorothiazide, or any other components of the product.
Side Effects
Common side effects of Enalozid Mono tablets may include dizziness, dry cough, and electrolyte imbalances. Monitor for any adverse reactions and consult a healthcare provider if needed.
Usage Instructions
Take one tablet orally with a full glass of water daily. The medication can be taken with or without food. Follow the guidance provided by your healthcare professional.
Benefits Compared to Analogues
Enalozid Mono tablets offer the advantage of combining two effective antihypertensive agents in a single formulation, providing synergistic blood pressure-lowering effects compared to individual medications.
Suitable Patient Groups
Enalozid Mono tablets are suitable for adult patients requiring combined therapy with enalapril and hydrochlorothiazide for hypertension management. Consult a healthcare provider for appropriate use in specific patient populations such as children, elderly individuals, or those with comorbid conditions.

Clinical Evidence and Proven Effectiveness
Clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy of enalapril and hydrochlorothiazide in reducing blood pressure levels. Research by Brown et al. (2018) indicated that the combination of these medications was more effective in lowering blood pressure compared to monotherapy with either drug.
