Description
Indapamide 2.5mg Tablets, 28 Tablets
If you\’re looking for a medication to help treat high blood pressure, you may want to consider Indapamide 2.5mg Tablets. This medication belongs to a group of medicines called diuretics, or water pills, and can be an effective way to lower your blood pressure.
Indapamide 2.5mg Tablets work by helping your body get rid of excess water and salt through urine. This helps to decrease the amount of fluid in your blood, which in turn lowers your blood pressure. In addition to treating high blood pressure, Indapamide 2.5mg Tablets may also be used to treat other medical conditions as prescribed by your doctor.
- High blood pressure (hypertension). It may be used on its own or in combination with other medicines for high blood pressure.
Most diuretics increase the amount of urine produced by the kidneys. However, indapamide is different from other diuretics, as it only causes a slight increase in the amount of urine produced. In addition, indapamide widens blood vessels so that blood passes through more easily. This helps lower blood pressure.
