Product Description

Product Name: Newday Tablets HCT 10/160/12.5mg 

Product Form: Tablets

Pack Size: 28s

Manufactured By: Werrick Pharmaceuticals

Used For:

  • Primary Use: Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), especially in patients who may benefit from a multi-action approach to achieve effective blood pressure control.
  • Reducing risk of cardiovascular events: Effective blood pressure management with medications like Newday HCT may help reduce the risk of complications such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney issues.

Side Effects:

Common Side Effects:

  1. Dizziness or lightheadedness: Common, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose.
  2. Headache
  3. Swelling in extremities (ankles, feet): Often due to amlodipine.
  4. Fatigue or muscle cramps: Often related to the diuretic component.
  5. Increased urination: Due to the diuretic effect of hydrochlorothiazide, which may cause frequent bathroom visits.

Less Common but Serious Side Effects:

  1. Low blood pressure (hypotension): Can cause symptoms like fainting or dizziness, especially if dehydrated or in hot weather.
  2. Electrolyte imbalances: Hydrochlorothiazide may cause low potassium, magnesium, or sodium levels, which can lead to symptoms like irregular heartbeats, muscle weakness, or confusion.
  3. Kidney problems: Valsartan can affect kidney function, especially in people with pre-existing kidney conditions.
  4. High blood sugar: Hydrochlorothiazide may increase blood sugar levels, which can be problematic for people with diabetes.
  5. Allergic reactions: Hives, itching, difficulty breathing, or swelling, especially if allergic to sulfa drugs (hydrochlorothiazide contains a sulfonamide component).

Precautions:

  1. Regular Monitoring:

    • Blood pressure and kidney function should be monitored regularly to ensure the medication is effective and does not cause adverse effects on the kidneys.

  2. Electrolyte Levels:

    • Regular blood tests to check electrolytes (potassium, sodium, magnesium) are essential to avoid imbalances, especially if you experience unusual symptoms like muscle cramps or irregular heartbeats.

  3. Avoid Dehydration:

    • Hydrochlorothiazide can lead to dehydration, which can worsen side effects like dizziness and hypotension. Drink enough water and avoid excessive alcohol.

  4. Use in People with Kidney or Liver Disease:

    • People with pre-existing kidney or liver issues should use Newday HCT with caution, as it can impact these organs.

  5. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

    • This medication should not be used during pregnancy, particularly in the second and third trimesters, as Valsartan can harm the fetus. Consult your doctor regarding safe alternatives.

  6. Avoid Overheating:

    • Due to the diuretic component, excessive sweating or heat exposure can lead to dehydration, so it’s essential to stay cool and hydrated.

  7. Alcohol:

    • Alcohol can intensify dizziness and low blood pressure. Limit alcohol intake while on this medication.
