Side Effects of Coversyl Am 8mg/5mg Tablet 10

Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet may have the following common side effects:

Headache
Dizziness
Oedema: This refers to swelling, typically in the ankles, feet, or hands due to fluid retention.
Flushing: This is a temporary sensation of warmth and redness in the face or other parts of your body.
Palpitations: This is the feeling that your heart is racing, pounding, or skipping beats.
Nausea
Abdominal pain
Fatigue

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Nausea: Taking Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet with food may help reduce this uncomfortable feeling.
Dizziness: Consider taking this medicine at bedtime to minimise the impact of dizziness on your daily activities.

How Coversyl Am 8mg/5mg Tablet 10 Works?

Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet contains two active ingredients:

Perindopril (8 mg): This component is an ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibitor that blocks the production of angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels. By preventing this narrowing effect, perindopril helps blood vessels relax and widen, lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart.
Amlodipine (5 mg): As a calcium channel blocker, amlodipine prevents calcium from entering the muscle cells of your heart and blood vessels. This helps relax your blood vessels, making them wider and reducing the pressure within them.

Pregnancy

Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet is contraindicated during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, make sure to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine. The components in this medicine may harm your developing baby.

Breastfeeding

Caution is advised while taking Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet if you are breastfeeding. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine as some of its components may pass into breast milk.

Alcohol

Caution is advised when consuming alcohol while taking Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet. Alcohol may increase the blood pressure-lowering effect of this medicine, potentially causing dizziness or light-headedness.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet if you have liver problems. This medicine should be used with care in patients with mild to moderate liver impairment. Your doctor may need to monitor your liver function during treatment.

Kidney

Caution is advised while taking Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet if you have kidney problems. The dose may need adjustment in patients with reduced kidney function. Regular monitoring of kidney function is important during treatment.

Using Machines & Driving

Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet may cause dizziness or fatigue in some people. If you experience these effects, avoid driving or operating machinery until you feel better. These symptoms are usually temporary and improve as your body adjusts to the medicine.

Allergy

If you have a history of allergic reactions, especially angioedema (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat), to ACE inhibitors like perindopril, you should not take Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet. Inform your doctor about any allergies you have before starting this medicine.

Children

Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet is not recommended for use in children under 18 years of age. The safety and effectiveness of this medicine have not been established for younger patients.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Coversyl AM 8mg/5mg Tablet under medical supervision, as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor may start with a lower dose if you are above 65 years of age. Older patients might also have liver and kidney issues that require dose adjustments.
