Zilarta Ct 40 Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients that work together to manage high blood pressure:

• Azilsartan Medoxomil (40 mg): This ingredient is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking a hormone called angiotensin II, which usually causes blood vessels to tighten. By blocking this hormone, azilsartan helps widen and relax the blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow through them. This action effectively decreases the pressure within the blood vessels.
• Chlorthalidone (12.5 mg): This ingredient is a thiazide-like diuretic. It works by increasing the removal of water and electrolytes, specifically sodium and chloride, from the body through urine. This reduction in fluid volume further helps in lowering blood pressure.

• Store Zilarta Ct 40 Tablet 10 at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.
• Keep it away from direct light and moisture to maintain its efficacy.
• Always ensure the medicine is out of reach of children for their safety.

• Cut down on salt intake as it can exacerbate high blood pressure, a condition managed by this medication.
• Regular exercise is recommended as it helps to decrease blood pressure levels. Start with light activities like brisk walking or cycling, gradually increasing intensity with your doctor's guidance.
