Coversam 4/10mg Tablet

Coversam 4/10mg Tablet contains Perindopril + Amlodipine 4/10mg, a two-in-one blood pressure medicine. Made by Servier Research & Pharmaceutical Pvt Ltd, it is prescribed for high blood pressure and stable coronary disease. Pack size: 10 tablets.

Uses of Coversam 4/10mg Tablet

Coversam 4/10mg Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure and stable coronary artery disease in adults whose condition is already controlled by perindopril and amlodipine taken separately. Combining both medicines in one tablet means fewer tablets to take. By keeping blood pressure under control, it helps lower the long-term risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney damage.

How Coversam 4/10mg Tablet works

Perindopril is an ACE inhibitor that reduces angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the muscle in artery walls. Working in two different ways, the pair widen the blood vessels more effectively, lowering blood pressure and easing the workload of the heart.
