Product Description

CILFORTH 5 TABLET contains Cilnidipine which belongs to the group of medicines called Antihypertensive agents. It is used to treat hypertension and its associated vascular disorders.

Hypertension (also known as high blood pressure) is a medical condition in which the force of the blood exerted against the walls of the arteries remains very high, and as a result it may lead to severe damage to the blood vessels supplying vital organs, such as heart, kidney or brain. If left untreated, it may cause serious complications such as heart attack, heart failure, stroke or even blindness.

By lowering blood pressure, CILFORTH 5 TABLET can also reduce the risk of angina (chest pain), heart attack (myocardial infarction) or stroke (sudden loss of blood supply).

Before taking CILFORTH 5 TABLET, inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney problems. You must also inform your doctor if you have severe hypotension (low blood pressure), edema or congestive heart failure.

CILFORTH 5 TABLET is not recommended for use in patients with other severe heart problems such as narrowing of heart valves. Consult your doctor before taking CILFORTH 5 TABLET if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

The most common side effects of taking CILFORTH 5 TABLET are swelling of ankles or other body parts, headache, dizziness, flushing, skin rashes and gingival hyperplasia (enlargement or overgrowth of the gums). Contact your doctor if any of these side effects trouble you.
