Product information
About
Lonitab 10 from Intas contains minoxidil, originally developed as a vasodilator for difficult-to-control high blood pressure. At this strength it is reserved for hypertension that has not responded to other agents.
Uses
- Severe or resistant high blood pressure
- Hypertension where other medicines have failed
- Used alongside a diuretic and beta-blocker
- Specialist-directed long-term blood pressure control
How it works
Minoxidil relaxes the muscle in artery walls, widening them so blood flows with less resistance. This lowers blood pressure, though it is usually combined with other drugs to balance fluid retention and heart rate.
How to take
Take as prescribed by your doctor with a glass of water. Do not stop suddenly, since blood pressure can rebound, and keep all follow-up appointments for monitoring.
Side effects
- Fluid retention and weight gain
- Increased hair growth on the body and face
- Fast heartbeat
- Dizziness or lightheadedness
Precautions
Tell your doctor about heart, kidney, or pericardial disease, and report breathlessness or chest pain promptly. This tablet is for blood pressure use and is different from minoxidil applied to the scalp.
Storage
Store below 25 degrees Celsius in a dry place away from direct light. Keep the strip in its carton and out of reach of children.
