Product Description

🔹 Product Overview
Cilaheart-T 10/40 mg Tablet is a prescription antihypertensive medicine sed to help manage high blood pressure (hypertension).
It contains two active ingredients:
Cilnidipine 10 mg – a calcium channel blocker (CCB)
Telmisartan 40 mg – an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB)
The combination works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, helping blood flow more easily and reducing blood pressure. Cilaheart-T is marketed by Mankind Pharma.

🔹 Key Uses
Treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension)
Helps control elevated blood pressure when one medicine alone may not provide adequate control
Helps reduce strain on the heart and blood vessels
Supports better blood-flow regulation
May help reduce the long-term cardiovascular risks associated with uncontrolled hypertension when used as prescribed

🔹 Composition
Active ingredients:
Cilnidipine – 10 mg
Telmisartan – 40 mg
Drug classes:
Cilnidipine – Calcium channel blocker
Telmisartan – Angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB)
The combination provides blood-pressure control through complementary mechanisms.

🔹 How It Works
Cilaheart-T contains two medicines that lower blood pressure in different but complementary ways.
Cilnidipine helps relax the muscles in blood-vessel walls by reducing calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle cells. This allows the blood vessels widen and improves blood flow.
Telmisartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that can cause blood vessels to constrict. Blocking this effect helps blood vessels remain relaxed and lowers blood pressure.
Together, these medicines help reduce resistance to blood flow and make it easier for the heart to circulate blood.

🔹 Key Benefits
Combination therapy for blood-pressure management
Helps relax and widen blood vessels
Supports effective control of hypertension
May provide better blood-pressure control when combination treatment is appropriate
Convenient oral tablet formulation
Designed for regular use according to a doctor's prescription

🔹 Dosage and Administration
Take Cilaheart-T exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
Swallow the tablet whole with water.
Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet unless specifically instructed by your healthcare professional.
It may generally be taken with or without food.

Do not stop treatment suddenly without consulting your doctor, even if your blood pressure improves.

🔹 Possible Side Effects

🔹 Precautions

Monitor your blood pressure regularly as advised by your doctor.
Cilaheart-T may cause dizziness or lightheadedness, particularly when standing up quickly.
Avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel dizzy.
Alcohol may increase the blood-pressure-lowering effect and may worsen dizziness.
