Frequently asked questions FOR Clindasartan

Cilnidipine

Q. What is the use of Cilnidipine?
Cilnidipine is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure. It belongs to a group of medicines which block the calcium channels in the blood vessel. It works by relaxing the blood vessels in patients with high blood pressure. This widens the diameter of the blood vessels which helps the blood to pass through them more easily.
Q. Which is better amlodipine or Cilnidipine?
Both these medicines are used in the treatment of blood pressure and are equally good in effectively reducing the blood pressure. Cilnidipine has also been found to be beneficial in patients with kidney problems as compared to amlodipine. Additionally, while amlodipine may have chances of causing mild ankle swelling, Cilnidipine has been found to have lesser chances of causing ankle swelling, tachycardia and palpitations. Your doctor will suggest either of these after seeing what suits you.
Q. What are the side effects of Cilnidipine?
Cilnidipine is generally well tolerated but sometimes can also be associated with side effects like headache, dizziness, flushing, palpitations, low blood pressure, and stomach problems. It may also cause increased urination, ankle swelling, and lethargy. These side effects are not common in everyone but may occur in some individuals. Do consult your doctor if you notice any side effects after taking this medicine.

Q. Is Cilnidipine good for patients of high blood pressure with kidney impairment?
Yes, Cilnidipine has been shown to have protective effects on the kidney cells, thereby preventing them from damage. It has also been shown to decrease protein leakage from the kidney in patients who have diabetes as well as high blood pressure.
Q. Should I take Cilnidipine in the morning or at night?
Cilnidipine can be taken anytime of the day. Usually, it is advised to be taken in the morning, but your doctor may advise to take it in the evening as well. You should take it at the same time each day so that you remember to take it and consistent levels of medicine are maintained in the body.
Q. How long do I need to take Cilnidipine?
You should keep on taking Cilnidipine for as long as your doctor has recommended you to take it. You may need to take it lifelong. Do not stop taking it, even if you feel well or your blood pressure is well controlled. If you stop taking Cilnidipine, your blood pressure may increase again and your condition may worsen.
Q. What changes can I make to control my blood pressure better?
Lifestyle changes play a major role in keeping you healthy if you are taking Cilnidipine. Avoid taking excess salt in your diet and find ways to reduce or manage stress in your life. Practise yoga or meditation or take up a hobby. Ensure that you have a sound sleep every night as this also reduces your stress and hence helps in keeping your blood pressure normal. Stop smoking and taking alcohol as this helps in lowering your blood pressure and helps to prevent heart problems. Exercise regularly and take a balanced diet that includes whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables and fat-free products. Avoid eating grapefruit (chakotra) or drinking grapefruit juice while taking Cilnidipine. You should consult your doctor if you need any further help to get maximum benefit of Cilnidipine and to keep healthy.

Irbesartan

Q. Which class does Irbesartan belong to?
Irbesartan belongs to a class of medicines called angiotensin II receptor antagonists (AIIRAs). Angiotensin II is a substance that occurs naturally in the body. It tightens the blood vessels, which in turn increases the blood pressure. Irbesartan blocks this effect so that the blood vessels relax, which helps lower your blood pressure.
Q. How should I take Irbesartan?
You should take Irbesartan exactly as directed by your doctor. It is for oral use and is usually taken once a day. You should take it with plenty of water, with or without food. It is recommended that you take this medicine at the same time every day.
Q. What if I forget to take a dose of Irbesartan?
If you have missed a dose of Irbesartan, take it as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, take it in the regular schedule instead of taking the missed dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one as this may increase the chances of developing side effects.

Q. How long does Irbesartan take to start working?
Irbesartan may take about 2 weeks to show a visible reduction in blood pressure. Full benefits of Irbesartan may take a little longer, about 4 weeks.
Q. What is the most important information I should know about Irbesartan?
You need to know that this medicine can cause harm or death to your unborn baby. Therefore, if you are planning a pregnancy or have become pregnant, consult your doctor right away. Your doctor may switch you to a different medicine to treat your high blood pressure.
Q. Is Irbesartan better than telmisartan?
Both Irbesartan and telmisartan are blood pressure-lowering medicines. Irbesartan is a relatively new medicine. It is as effective as telmisartan in lowering blood pressure. It can be safely used in patients as it has fewer side effects.
Q. Can I stop Irbesartan on my own?
No, do not stop taking Irbesartan without speaking to your doctor, even if you are feeling well or your blood pressure is controlled. Stopping it suddenly may increase your blood pressure which may increase your risk of stroke.
Q. What are the symptoms of overdose of Irbesartan?
Taking more than the recommended dose of Irbesartan may decrease your blood pressure due to which you may feel dizzy or may even faint. Consult your doctor immediately or seek emergency medical aid in a nearby hospital.
Q. What other lifestyle changes should I make while taking Irbesartan?
Lifestyle changes play a major role in keeping you healthy if you are taking Irbesartan. Avoid taking excess salt in your diet and find ways to reduce or manage stress in your life. Practice yoga or meditation or take up a hobby. Ensure that you have a sound sleep every night as this also helps to reduce stress levels and helps to keep your blood pressure normal. Stop smoking and alcohol consumption as this helps in lowering your blood pressure and preventing heart problems. Exercise regularly and take a balanced diet that includes whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables, and fat-free products. Consult your doctor if you need any further guidance to get the maximum benefit of Irbesartan and to keep yourself healthy.
