Cardistep 6.25 Tablet contains Carvedilol 6.25 mg, a beta-blocker used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), chronic heart failure, and angina (chest pain). It works by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors, leading to relaxation of blood vessels, reduced heart rate, and improved blood flow, which helps in managing cardiovascular conditions. By decreasing the workload on the heart, it enhances heart function and prevents complications such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage.
This medication is particularly effective for patients with chronic heart failure, as it improves heart efficiency and reduces symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, and fluid retention. It is also beneficial in post-heart attack recovery, as it helps stabilize heart function and prevents further damage. Carvedilol possesses antioxidant properties, which contribute to the protection of heart tissues and overall cardiovascular health.
In patients with hypertension, Cardistep 6.25 lowers blood pressure by reducing resistance in blood vessels, thereby reducing the risk of heart-related complications. Additionally, it is prescribed for angina, as it enhances blood supply to the heart and prevents episodes of chest pain.
Cardistep 6.25 Tablet should be taken as directed by a healthcare professional. Abrupt discontinuation of this medication can cause severe fluctuations in blood pressure and heart rate, so any dosage adjustments should be done under medical supervision. Patients should monitor their blood pressure and heart rate regularly while on this medication.
