Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 is used to manage premature labour, a condition where uterine contractions begin before the 37th week of pregnancy. It belongs to a class of medications known as vasodilators and uterine relaxants.

Additionally, this medicine is beneficial for treating various vascular diseases characterised by restricted blood circulation. These include peripheral vascular disease (poor circulation in the limbs), Raynaud's disease (a condition causing decreased blood flow to fingers and toes), and arteriosclerosis obliterans (narrowing of blood vessels due to plaque buildup).

This medicine should be taken as directed by your doctor, with the dosage determined based on your specific condition and response. It is important to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications before beginning this medicine. If you notice any side effects while taking this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. Continue taking the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 is used for the following:

Management of premature labour
Prevention of preterm delivery
Treatment of peripheral vascular disease
Managing Raynaud's disease
Treatment of arteriosclerosis obliterans
Improving blood circulation in vascular disorders
Relaxing uterine muscles during pregnancy complications
Suppressing early labour contractions

Follow these instructions while taking Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10:

Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
Take this medicine with food to reduce stomach upset.
Avoid crushing or chewing the tablet.

Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 may have the following common side effects:

Nausea
Vomiting
Dizziness
Headache
Palpitations
Tremors

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless and are resolved by discontinuing the use of Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Nausea: Taking Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 with food can help reduce this uncomfortable feeling.
Dizziness: Try taking this medicine at bedtime to minimise the impact of dizziness on your daily activities.

Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 contains isoxsuprine (20 mg), which works on the body as follows:

Beta-Adrenergic Stimulation: Isoxsuprine activates beta-2 receptors in the uterine muscle, causing relaxation and decreased contractility, which helps suppress premature labour contractions.
Smooth Muscle Relaxation: The medicine relaxes the smooth muscles found in the walls of blood vessels, leading to the widening of these vessels and improved blood flow.
Vasodilation: By expanding blood vessels, isoxsuprine increases blood circulation to areas with compromised blood flow, which is particularly beneficial in vascular diseases.
Uterine Contractility Reduction: The medicine decreases the strength and frequency of uterine contractions, helping to prevent preterm delivery in cases of premature labour.

Pregnancy

Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 is used under close medical supervision during pregnancy, specifically to manage premature labour. It should only be taken if clearly needed and as directed by your doctor.

Breastfeeding

Caution is advised while taking Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 if you are breastfeeding. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Alcohol

It is best to avoid alcohol during treatment with this medicine. Alcohol may increase the risk of side effects like dizziness and low blood pressure.

Liver

Caution is advised while taking Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 if you have liver problems. If you have any history of liver disease, inform your doctor before starting this medicine.

Kidney

Caution is advised before using Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 if you have a history of kidney problems. It is a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 may cause dizziness or light-headedness in some people. If you experience these symptoms, avoid driving vehicles or operating heavy machinery until you feel better.

Allergy

If you have any known allergies to isoxsuprine or any ingredients in Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10, you should not take this medicine. Inform your doctor about all your allergies before starting treatment.

Children

Drug-Drug Interactions

Beta-Blockers: Medicines like propranolol or metoprolol may counteract the effects of Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10, potentially reducing its effectiveness in improving blood circulation.
Calcium Channel Blockers: When taken with Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10, medicines like amlodipine or diltiazem can increase the risk of low blood pressure (hypotension).
Diuretics: Medicines such as furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide used alongside Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 may enhance blood pressure-lowering effects, increasing dizziness risk.
Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs): Combining Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 with MAOIs like phenelzine or tranylcypromine can increase the risk of dangerous high blood pressure (hypertensive crisis).

Coronary Artery Disease: This medicine may worsen symptoms in patients with severe coronary artery disease.
Severe Tachycardia: Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 can increase heart rate, potentially worsening pre-existing rapid heartbeat conditions.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 should be taken as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage may change based on your condition's severity and how you respond to treatment. Always follow the prescribed dosage and never exceed it without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

Overdosing on Gidilan 20 MG Tablet 10 may cause dizziness, nausea, vomiting, headache, palpitations (fast heartbeat), tremors, and nervousness. If you experience these symptoms, contact your doctor for advice.

Missed Dose

If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Never take extra tablets to make up for missed doses.
