Coversyl 4mg Tablet

Coversyl 4mg Tablet is a tablet made by Servier Research & Pharmaceutical Pvt Ltd that contains Perindopril 4mg, an ACE inhibitor. It is used for high blood pressure, heart failure and stable coronary disease. Pack size: 10 tablets.

Uses of Coversyl 4mg Tablet

Coversyl 4mg Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. In people with stable coronary artery disease, it is also used to reduce the risk of heart attack and other heart problems. Lowering blood pressure over time protects the heart, kidneys, brain and blood vessels. High blood pressure rarely causes symptoms, so it is usually taken long term even when you feel well.

How Coversyl 4mg Tablet works

Perindopril blocks an enzyme called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), which the body uses to make angiotensin II, a hormone that tightens blood vessels. With less angiotensin II, blood vessels relax and widen, blood pressure falls and the heart does not have to work as hard to pump blood.

Possible side effects

Most people take Coversyl 4mg Tablet without trouble, though some notice:

• Dry, tickly cough
• Dizziness or light-headedness
• Headache

Get emergency help if you notice swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat, or difficulty breathing or swallowing. Also see a doctor promptly for yellowing of the skin, a severe rash or passing much less urine.
