CompositionTWINCAL 10 Tablet 10 is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It helps lower the risk of long-term complications such as stroke and heart attack and may also help protect the heart and kidneys from the damaging effects of raised blood pressure.
TWINCAL 10 Tablet 10 contains cilnidipine, a calcium channel blocker. Continue taking it regularly even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often has no symptoms. Avoid eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while on this medicine, as it can affect how the medicine works.
Healthy lifestyle changes form an important part of managing high blood pressure. These include regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, reducing salt and saturated fat in your diet, limiting alcohol, and quitting smoking. Managing stress and getting adequate sleep can also support heart health.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have any heart problems, liver disease, low blood pressure, or are taking other medicines. Inform your doctor if you notice persistent swelling in your ankles or strong dizziness. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use.
