Preterax 2.5/0.625mg Tablets 30'S

Perindopril belongs to Angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors which are a class of medication used primarily for the treatment of high blood pressure and heart failure. They work by causing relaxation of blood vessels as well as a decrease in blood volume, which leads to lower blood pressure and decreased oxygen demand from the heart. In addition, Perindopril blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II and prevents the degradation of vasodilator prostaglandins, thereby inhibiting systemic vasoconstriction, regulated by angiotensin II, and promoting systemic vasodilation. Indapamide has a dual mechanism of action: diuretic effect at the level of the distal tubule in the kidney and a direct vascular effect, both of which contribute to the antihypertensive efficacy of the drug.
