- Composition & Class: Mylod L is a combination medication that belongs to the class of antihypertensives. It contains a calcium channel blocker and an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), which work together to effectively manage high blood pressure and improve heart health.
- Mechanism of Action: This medication combines two active ingredients: one that relaxes and widens blood vessels by blocking calcium influx, and another that prevents the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict. Together, they lower blood pressure and improve circulation.
- Indications: Primarily prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage. It may also be beneficial for patients with certain heart conditions.
- Dosage & Administration: Typically taken once daily, with or without food, as directed by a healthcare provider. The dosage is adjusted based on individual response and medical history.
- Benefits: Helps in effectively reducing high blood pressure, improving blood vessel function, decreasing the workload on the heart, and lowering the risk of long-term heart and kidney complications.
- Side Effects: Possible side effects include dizziness, swelling in the ankles or feet, headache, fatigue, nausea, and low blood pressure. Severe side effects should be reported to a doctor immediately.
- Precautions: Should be used with caution in patients with kidney or liver disease, heart conditions, or electrolyte imbalances. It is important to avoid excessive potassium intake, as it may affect electrolyte levels.
