Renopress XL-5 Tablet is taken orally.

Renopress XL-5 Tablet contains prazosin (5 mg) and works in the body as follows:

• Alpha-1 Receptor Blockade: Prazosin acts by obstructing norepinephrine action on alpha-1 receptors present in the smooth muscles of your blood vessels. Norepinephrine is a hormone that causes contractions in blood vessels, thus raising blood pressure.

• Blood Vessel Relaxation: By blocking the action of norepinephrine, prazosin promotes the widening or dilation of blood vessels, called vasodilation. This results in reduced resistance to blood flow and lowers your blood pressure.

• Sustained Medicine Release: As an extended-release formulation, prazosin allows for a gradual and consistent release of the medicine into your bloodstream. This means that it gives lasting control over high blood pressure with fewer daily doses compared to the immediate-release forms.

• Always store your Renopress XL-5 Tablet at room temperature, ideally between 20-25°C.

• Keep the medicine away from direct heat and light.

• Ensure it's not exposed to moisture or damp conditions.

• Always keep it out of reach of children.

• Remember to use it before the expiry date printed on the packaging.

• Since Renopress XL-5 Tablet is used to manage hypertension, consider reducing your salt intake. Excessive salt can raise blood pressure levels.

• Regular exercise is beneficial in controlling high blood pressure. Try to incorporate activities like brisk walking or cycling into your daily routine. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
