Moxocard 0.3 Tablet contains moxonidine (0.3 mg), which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Stimulates Imidazoline Receptors: Moxonidine activates specific receptors in your brain, called imidazoline receptors. These receptors play a critical role in controlling your blood pressure.

• Reduces Sympathetic Nerve Activity: By stimulating the imidazoline receptors, moxonidine decreases the activity of certain nerves known as sympathetic nerves. This reduction leads to the relaxation of your blood vessels.

• Lowers Blood Pressure: The relaxation of your blood vessels reduces the resistance to blood flow, effectively lowering your blood pressure. Moxonidine also decreases heart rate and cardiac output, contributing towards its blood pressure-lowering effect.

• Store Moxocard 0.3 Tablet at room temperature, ideally between 15 and 30 °C.

• Keep it in a tightly closed container, shielded from light and moisture.

• Cut down on salt: High salt intake can raise blood pressure, making Moxocard 0.3 Tablet less effective. Try keeping your daily intake under 6g.
