Cortel Ln Tablet 15

Cortel LN Tablet is used in adults to manage high blood pressure when a single medicine is not enough.

Uses of Cortel LN Tablet are:

• High Blood Pressure: Combines two medicines for better blood pressure control.
• Cardiovascular Protection: Helps reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.
• Combined Treatment: Uses an angiotensin receptor blocker and a calcium channel blocker together.

Take Cortel LN Tablet as follows:

• Follow the dosage and timing instructions provided by your doctor precisely.

• Do not change or exceed the prescribed dose without consulting your doctor.

• Consult your doctor before discontinuing the medication; do not stop taking it without their guidance.

• Adhere to the dietary recommendations given by your doctor.

Cortel LN Tablet is taken orally.

Cortel LN Tablet contains two active ingredients that work together to manage high blood pressure:

• Cilnidipine (10 mg): This ingredient is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It works by blocking the inflow of calcium ions into your heart and blood vessel cells. This makes your blood vessels relax and widen, lowering your peripheral vascular resistance and reducing your blood pressure.

• Telmisartan (40 mg): This component is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It selectively blocks angiotensin II from binding with receptors in your vascular smooth muscle and adrenal gland. By inhibiting these activities of angiotensin II, telmisartan decreases vascular resistance and ultimately reduces your blood pressure.

These two ingredients work in tandem through different mechanisms to control high blood pressure effectively.

• Store Cortel LN Tablet in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays between 15°C and 30°C.

• Keep away from direct light and heat sources.

• Ensure the medicine is kept sealed in its original packaging until it's time to take it.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Make sure you use the medicine before its expiry date.

• Limit your intake of high-sodium foods. Too much salt can increase your blood pressure, counteracting the benefits of Cortel LN Tablet.

• Regular physical activity can help manage your blood pressure. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise each week, like walking or cycling.
