Product Description

Product Name: Co-Extor Tablets 10/160/12.5

Product Form: Tablets

Pack Size: 14s

Manufactured By:  The Searle Company

Used For:

  • Hypertension (high blood pressure): Co-Extor is used to treat high blood pressure, helping to lower the risk of cardiovascular complications such as heart attack and stroke.
  • Heart Failure: It may also be prescribed to improve heart function in patients with heart failure.
  • Amlodipine works by relaxing the blood vessels, allowing for easier blood flow and reducing blood pressure.
  • Valsartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, preventing blood vessel constriction and further aiding in blood pressure reduction.
  • Hydrochlorothiazide increases urine output, promoting the elimination of sodium and water from the body, which lowers blood volume and reduces blood pressure.

Side Effects:

  • Common side effects may include:

    • Dizziness or lightheadedness
    • Fatigue
    • Increased urination
    • Swelling in the legs or ankles
    • Flushing

  • Serious side effects (rare) may include:

    • Electrolyte imbalances (e.g., low potassium levels)
    • Severe allergic reactions (swelling, rash, difficulty breathing)
    • Kidney or liver problems
    • Severe hypotension (low blood pressure)

Precautions:

  • Inform your healthcare provider if you have a history of kidney or liver disease, heart problems, diabetes, or dehydration before starting the medication.
  • Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and electrolyte levels may be necessary during treatment.
  • Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium without medical advice, as they can increase potassium levels in the blood.
  • Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as this medication may not be suitable in these situations.
  • Do not stop taking this medication suddenly without consulting your healthcare provider, as it may lead to a rebound increase in blood pressure.
  • Take the medication as prescribed, and report any unusual symptoms or severe side effects to your healthcare provider immediately.
