Management Of Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Lotensyl 10 Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Flushing: Try taking Lotensyl 10 Tablet with food to minimise this effect.

Lotensyl 10 Tablet contains lercanidipine hydrochloride (10 mg), which affects your body in the following ways:

Blocks Calcium Entry: Lercanidipine works by preventing the entry of calcium into the muscle cells of your heart and the walls of your blood vessels. Calcium is essential for muscle contraction, so when its entry is blocked, the muscles can relax.
Dilates Blood Vessels: As a result of the blocked calcium entry, the muscles in the walls of your blood vessels relax and widen, or dilate. This dilation reduces the resistance to blood flow in your peripheral blood vessels.
Reduces Blood Pressure: The dilation of your blood vessels leads to a decrease in blood pressure. This makes it easier for your heart to pump blood throughout your body. Lower blood pressure means less strain on your heart and blood vessels, helping to keep them healthy.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Lotensyl 10 Tablet if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
