Composition

Ramipril (2.5 Mg) + Telmisartan (40 Mg)

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 is used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension). It is a combination medicine that belongs to a class of medications known as antihypertensives.

By helping control blood pressure, this medicine reduces the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke. It is particularly effective in cases where single-medicine therapy has not adequately controlled blood pressure levels. This helps protect your cardiovascular system and improves overall heart health.

This medicine should be taken orally as directed by your doctor. Before starting the treatment, inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions you may have or any other medicines you are currently taking. If you experience any side effects whilst using this medicine, notify your doctor promptly.

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 is used for the following:

Managing high blood pressure
Lowering the risk of a heart attack
Preventing stroke and other cardiovascular events
Treating hypertension when single medicines aren't effective
Reducing strain on the heart and blood vessels
Protecting kidney function in hypertensive patients
Improving blood flow through widened blood vessels

Follow these instructions while taking Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10:

Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
Do not crush, break, or chew the tablet.
Take it at the same time every day to maintain its effectiveness.
Continue taking this medicine even if you feel well.

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 may have the following common side effects:

Dizziness
Fatigue
Nausea
Diarrhoea
Headache
Cough
Hypotension: This refers to low blood pressure, which might make you feel lightheaded, especially when standing up quickly.
Hyperkalaemia: This means having too much potassium in your blood, which usually doesn't cause noticeable symptoms but can be detected through blood tests.
Kidney impairment: This refers to reduced kidney function, which might not cause immediate symptoms but can affect how your body processes medicines and removes waste.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10. 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 Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 with food may help reduce feelings of sickness.
Dizziness: Consider taking this medicine at bedtime to minimise the impact of dizziness on your daily activities.

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients:

Ramipril (2.5 mg): This component belongs to a class of medicines called ACE inhibitors. It works by blocking an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which normally produces angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels. By inhibiting this enzyme, ramipril helps blood vessels relax and widen, improving blood flow.
Telmisartan (40 mg): This is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It prevents angiotensin II from binding to its receptors on blood vessels. This action counteracts the blood vessel-constricting effects of angiotensin II, relaxing blood vessels and reducing blood pressure.

Pregnancy

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 is contraindicated during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, make sure to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine. It should be discontinued immediately if pregnancy is detected, as it can cause harm to the developing baby.

Breastfeeding

Caution is advised while taking Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 if you are breastfeeding. Both active ingredients (ramipril and telmisartan) can pass into breast milk. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine while nursing.

Alcohol

Caution is advised when consuming alcohol while taking Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10. Alcohol may increase the blood pressure-lowering effect of this medicine, potentially causing dizziness or light-headedness. It is best to avoid or limit alcohol consumption during treatment.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 if you have liver problems. This medicine should be used with care if you have impaired liver function or progressive liver disease. Your doctor may need to monitor your liver function during treatment.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 if you have kidney problems. This medicine may affect kidney function and could cause increased potassium levels in your blood. Your doctor may recommend regular monitoring of your kidney function during treatment.

Using Machines & Driving

Caution is advised while driving or operating machinery when taking Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10. This medicine may cause dizziness or fatigue, which could affect your ability to concentrate. If you experience these symptoms, avoid potentially hazardous activities until you know how the medicine affects you.

Allergy

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 should not be taken if you have a known hypersensitivity to ramipril, telmisartan, or any other ACE inhibitors or ARBs. If you have a history of angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat), this medicine is not suitable for you.

Children

Caution is advised while giving Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 to children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

Older patients should take Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 under medical supervision, as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Caution is advised if you are above 70 years of age. Older patients might also have liver and kidney issues and might be on other medication. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 interacts with the following medicines:

Potassium supplements: Medicines like potassium chloride or potassium citrate may increase potassium levels in your blood when taken with Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: Medicines like ibuprofen, diclofenac, and naproxen may decrease the blood pressure-lowering effects of Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 and potentially worsen kidney function.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 interacts with the following diseases:

Heart failure: May cause an excessive drop in blood pressure (hypotension) in patients with severe heart failure.
Diabetes: Requires careful monitoring, as Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 may affect blood sugar levels and increase the risk of high potassium.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage may change based on your blood pressure readings and how well you respond to treatment. Never increase or decrease your dose without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

Taking too many Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 may cause dizziness, fatigue, low blood pressure, and nausea. You might also experience a headache or feel unusually tired. If you suspect an overdose, contact your doctor for advice.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10, take it as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Never take a double dose to make up for the missed one.

Store Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 at room temperature.
Protect the tablet from moisture.
Keep in a tight, light-resistant container.
Store all medicines out of reach of children.
Do not use Cresar R 40/2.5 MG Tablet 10 after the expiry date printed on the package.

Reduce salt intake: Lowering sodium consumption helps manage high blood pressure (hypertension). Try using herbs and spices instead of salt to flavour your food.
Maintain a healthy weight: Being overweight increases your blood pressure. Regular physical activity (30 minutes most days) helps control your weight and lower your blood pressure.
