Hypertension (high blood pressure)

Medicinal Benefits:

METORIGHT H TABLET contains a combination of medicines: Metoprolol (beta-blockers) and Hydrochlorothiazide (thiazide diuretic or water pill). Metoprolol plays a vital role in relaxing our blood vessels by blocking the action of certain natural substances in our bodies. It helps slow down the heart rate, making it easier to pump more blood around your body and lower blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that prevents excess salt absorption in the body, preventing fluid retention. Collectively, both help reduces blood pressure and the chance of a stroke, heart attack, and oedema (fluid overload).
