Rasilez HCT 300mg/25mg Tablet is a tablet made by Novartis Pharma (pakistan)ltd that contains Aliskiren + Hydrochlorothiazide 300mg/25mg, a direct renin inhibitor combined with a thiazide diuretic. It is used for high blood pressure. Pack size: 2×7 tablets.

Uses of Rasilez HCT 300mg/25mg Tablet

Rasilez HCT 300mg/25mg Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure in adults whose blood pressure is not well controlled on either medicine alone. Bringing blood pressure down to a healthy level lowers the long-term risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure and kidney damage. It controls blood pressure rather than curing it, so it needs to be taken regularly, even when you feel well.

How Rasilez HCT 300mg/25mg Tablet works

Aliskiren blocks renin, an enzyme that starts a chain of hormones which narrow blood vessels and make the body hold on to salt and water. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that helps the kidneys remove extra salt and water. Together they relax the blood vessels and reduce fluid volume, lowering blood pressure.

Precautions and warnings

• Do not use Rasilez HCT 300mg/25mg Tablet if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy, as aliskiren can harm the unborn baby, and avoid it while breastfeeding unless your doctor advises otherwise.
• Tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease, diabetes, gout, or low sodium or potassium levels, as you may need regular blood tests.
• Aliskiren should not be combined with ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers in people with diabetes or kidney problems; tell your doctor about all your medicines, including potassium supplements, lithium and painkillers such as ibuprofen.
• Avoid taking it with grapefruit juice, which can reduce how much aliskiren is absorbed.
• Stand up slowly if you feel dizzy, and take extra care in hot weather or if you have vomiting or diarrhoea, as you may lose too much fluid.
