Fixocard 50 mg Tablet ~ 1 Strip

Product Overview

Fixocard 50 is a fixed-dose combination engineered to manage hypertension when a single medication is not enough. It works synergistically through two distinct pathways to make your heart pump blood more efficiently throughout the body:

·       Amlodipine (5 mg): A calcium channel blocker that directly relaxes and widens tight blood vessels, effectively lowering peripheral vascular resistance.

·       Atenolol (50 mg): A cardio-selective beta-blocker that targets the heart specifically to slow down the heart rate and reduce myocardial oxygen demand.

By lowering elevated blood pressure, Fixocard 50 significantly reduces workload stresses on the heart, protecting patients from future cardiovascular risks.

Key Indications

·       Essential Hypertension: Effectively controls and lowers high blood pressure.

·       Chronic Stable Angina Pectoris: Prevents and manages chest pain, especially when hypertension and angina co-exist.

·       Post-Myocardial Infarction (Post-MI): Supports long-term heart maintenance following a heart attack.

·       Refractory Angina: Provides alternative relief for chest pain where traditional nitrate therapies have failed.

Key Benefits

·       Synergistic 24-Hour Defense: Combines a blood vessel relaxant and a heart rate optimizer into a single tablet for comprehensive blood pressure control.

·       Reduces Stroke & Heart Attack Risk: Consistently maintaining optimal blood pressure levels with Fixocard reduces the chances of long-term cardiovascular damage.

·       Decreases Cardiac Workload: Lowers oxygen demands on heart tissues, preventing smooth muscle fatigue and protecting cardiovascular longevity.

Dosage & Administration

·       Standard Adult Dose: Take 1 tablet once daily, or exactly as directed by your physician. The dosage may be titrated up to 2 tablets daily depending on clinical evaluation.

·       How to Take: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. It is highly recommended to take it on an empty stomach at the same time each day to maximize consistency.

·       Crucial Note: High blood pressure often presents no visible symptoms. Never stop taking Fixocard 50 suddenly on your own, as abrupt drug withdrawal can cause a dangerous rebound increase in blood pressure or aggravate underlying heart conditions.
