CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S

How CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S Works

• CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S is a combination medication designed to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) effectively. It combines the actions of three different classes of antihypertensive drugs: Cilnidipine, Telmisartan, and Chlorthalidone, each working through distinct mechanisms to lower blood pressure and protect against cardiovascular complications.
• Cilnidipine is a calcium channel blocker (CCB) that primarily targets L/N-type calcium channels. These channels are found in the vascular smooth muscle cells and nerve terminals. By blocking calcium influx into these cells, Cilnidipine induces vasodilation, relaxing and widening the blood vessels. This reduces peripheral vascular resistance, making it easier for the heart to pump blood, thereby lowering blood pressure. Unlike some other CCBs, Cilnidipine's action on N-type calcium channels provides additional benefits, potentially reducing sympathetic nerve activity and offering better protection against cardiovascular risks associated with high blood pressure.
• Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). Angiotensin II is a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict, increasing blood pressure. It also stimulates the release of aldosterone, which leads to sodium and water retention, further elevating blood pressure. Telmisartan works by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to its receptors (AT1 receptors) in various tissues, including the blood vessels and adrenal glands. This prevents the vasoconstrictive effects of angiotensin II, promoting vasodilation and reducing blood pressure. Additionally, by blocking angiotensin II's action on aldosterone release, Telmisartan helps reduce sodium and water retention, further contributing to blood pressure reduction and providing renal protection.
• Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic. It works by inhibiting sodium and chloride reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule of the kidneys. This leads to increased excretion of sodium and water, reducing the volume of fluid in the bloodstream. As blood volume decreases, blood pressure is reduced. Chlorthalidone also has a longer duration of action compared to some other diuretics, providing sustained blood pressure control throughout the day. The diuretic effect complements the actions of Cilnidipine and Telmisartan, providing a synergistic effect in lowering blood pressure. The combination of these three medications allows for comprehensive management of hypertension by targeting multiple pathways involved in blood pressure regulation.

CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S may cause several side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include headache, dizziness, flushing (feeling of warmth), palpitations (irregular heartbeat), ankle swelling, fatigue, and nausea. Less common but potentially serious side effects include low blood pressure, increased heart rate, muscle cramps or weakness, joint pain, and allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling (especially of the face, tongue, or throat). Some individuals might experience changes in liver function tests or blood sugar levels. Digestive issues like constipation, diarrhea, or abdominal pain are also possible. In rare cases, more severe reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis (severe skin reactions) have been reported. Consult your doctor immediately if you experience any persistent or severe side effects.

• If you miss a dose of CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.

• Keep CILNIP TRIO 50MG TAB 1X15 away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store CILNIP TRIO 50MG TAB 1X15 at room temperature.

• Take CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not alter the dosage or stop taking the medication without consulting your healthcare provider, as this can affect your blood pressure control and potentially lead to adverse health outcomes. Consistency is key for optimal results.
• CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S is typically taken once daily. Follow your doctor's instructions regarding the timing of the dose, whether it should be taken in the morning or evening, and if it should be taken with or without food. Maintaining a consistent daily schedule will help you adhere to the medication regimen.
• While taking CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S, monitor your blood pressure regularly, as advised by your doctor. Keep a record of your blood pressure readings and share it with your healthcare provider during check-ups. This will help them assess the effectiveness of the medication and make necessary adjustments.
• Inform your doctor about all other medications, supplements, or herbal remedies you are currently taking before starting CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S. Drug interactions can occur, potentially affecting the efficacy of the medication or increasing the risk of side effects. A complete medication list will help your doctor ensure your safety.
• Lifestyle modifications, such as maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in regular physical activity, limiting alcohol consumption, and quitting smoking, can significantly complement the effects of CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S in managing your blood pressure. Adopt these changes to promote overall cardiovascular health and improve the medication's effectiveness. Regular exercise, like brisk walking for at least 30 minutes most days of the week, can significantly lower blood pressure. Also, reduce your intake of sodium by avoiding processed foods and adding less salt to your meals. Stress management techniques such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises can also help maintain healthy blood pressure levels.

• CILNIP TRIO TABLET 15'S can be taken with or without food. However, it is advisable to take it at a fixed time to maintain consistent blood levels of the medicine. Avoid grapefruit juice, as it may interact with the medication and increase the risk of side effects. Consult your doctor for specific dietary advice while taking this medication.
