Product Description

Product Name: Coversam Tablets 8/5mg

Product Form: Tablets

Pack Size: 10's

Manufactured By: Servier

Used For:

  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Coversam is primarily used to treat high blood pressure, helping to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke.
  • Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): It may also be prescribed for patients with stable coronary artery disease to reduce the risk of heart problems.
  • Perindopril works by inhibiting the action of the ACE enzyme, reducing the production of angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels. By relaxing blood vessels, it lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart.
  • Amlodipine relaxes the blood vessels by blocking calcium channels in the smooth muscle cells, leading to lowered blood pressure and reduced chest pain (angina).

Side Effects:

  • Common side effects may include:

    • Dizziness or lightheadedness
    • Headache
    • Swelling (edema)
    • Fatigue
    • Flushing (feeling of warmth)

  • Serious side effects (rare) may include:

    • Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling)
    • Low blood pressure (hypotension)
    • Increased potassium levels (hyperkalemia)
    • Angioedema (swelling of deeper layers of the skin)
    • Liver or kidney problems

Precautions:

  • Inform your healthcare provider if you have a history of liver disease, kidney disease, heart problems, or electrolyte imbalances.
  • Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and electrolytes may be necessary during treatment.
  • Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium unless advised by your healthcare provider.
  • Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as this medication may not be suitable during pregnancy.
  • Do not stop taking the medication abruptly without consulting your healthcare provider, as it may lead to a rebound increase in blood pressure or heart problems.
  • Report any unusual symptoms or severe side effects to your healthcare provider immediately.
