Indap
Indapamide tablets are specifically formulated to manage hypertension by acting as a thiazide-like diuretic. This medication works by helping the kidneys eliminate excess salt and water from the body, effectively lowering blood pressure. As a result, it reduces the risk of complications such as stroke and heart attack. Indapamide is well-absorbed, providing a steady therapeutic effect that contributes to improved cardiovascular health. It is typically taken once daily, making it convenient for long-term use. Regular monitoring of blood pressure is recommended to assess its effectiveness. Indapamide is often prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for managing high blood pressure.Active substance:
