Eplerenone 50mg Tablets

Product Introduction

Eplerenone 50mg is a selective aldosterone receptor blocker used to treat high blood pressure and selected heart-failure situations, including reduced ejection fraction after a heart attack. It helps the body remove extra sodium and water and reduces aldosterone-related strain on the heart and blood vessels. This medicine is not for quick relief of chest pain or sudden breathlessness.

How to use

Take Eplerenone 50mg exactly as prescribed, with or without food, at a consistent time. Keep potassium and kidney-function blood tests. Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless the prescriber approves them.

How it works

Eplerenone blocks aldosterone receptors in the kidney, heart, and blood vessels. This reduces sodium retention, limits potassium loss, and lowers aldosterone-related cardiovascular strain.

Common side effects

Possible effects include dizziness, tiredness, diarrhoea, cough, low blood pressure, increased creatinine, and high potassium. Serious warning signs include irregular heartbeat, severe weakness, fainting, severe dizziness, swelling, or reduced urination.

Important information

Review kidney disease, high potassium, diabetes with protein in urine, liver disease, pregnancy, breastfeeding, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, aliskiren, potassium supplements, salt substitutes, strong CYP3A inhibitors, NSAIDs, and trimethoprim.
