MIDGEO 5 TABLET 10 contains midodrine (5 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Alpha-1 Adrenergic Stimulation: Midodrine is a prodrug that gets converted to its active form called desglymidodrine, which stimulates alpha-1 receptors in blood vessels, causing them to constrict.

• Blood Vessel Constriction: It causes the arteries and veins to narrow, which increases the resistance in the circulatory system and improves blood circulation throughout the body.

• Blood Pressure Elevation: By constricting blood vessels, midodrine raises both systolic and diastolic blood pressure without significantly affecting heart rate, helping maintain adequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs.

• Blood Pooling Prevention: It prevents excessive pooling of blood in the lower extremities when standing up, which helps reduce dizziness and fainting.

• Store at room temperature (below 30°C) in a cool, dry place.

• Keep the medicine in its original packaging until use.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the package.

• As MIDGEO 5 TABLET 10 manages low blood pressure, consuming appropriate amounts of salt can help maintain your blood pressure levels. Speak with your doctor about the right amount for your specific condition.

• When getting up from lying or sitting positions, do so gradually to give your body time to adjust to postural changes and reduce dizziness or lightheadedness.
