About Aztric CT-12.5 Tablet

Aztric CT-12.5 Tablet belongs to the class of drugs called anti-hypertensive agents primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Hypertension (high blood pressure) is a medical condition in which the blood pressure is elevated persistently in the arteries. High blood pressure is mostly caused by obesity, diabetes, smoking, high salt intake, stress, lack of physical activity or ageing.

Aztric CT-12.5 Tablet consists of two medicines, namely: Azilsartan and Chlorthalidone. Azilsartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that works by blocking the hormone angiotensin. This helps relax the blood vessels, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. Chlorthalidone belongs to thiazide diuretics (water pill) which inhibits fluid retention or build-up. Thus, it relaxes the blood vessels and improves blood circulation. Together, Aztric CT-12.5 Tablet helps lower raised blood pressure.

Your doctor will decide the dosage and duration based on your medical condition. In some cases, Aztric CT-12.5 Tablet can cause side effects like nausea, taste changes, stomach upset, diarrhoea, headache, weakness, dizziness, and decreased blood pressure. Most of these side effects of Aztric CT-12.5 Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Hypertension: Hypertension is a medical condition in which blood pressure is elevated persistently in the arteries. It is considered an essential risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and can be caused due to obesity, diabetes, smoking, high salt intake, stress, lack of physical activity or ageing. Blood pressure is measured in the ratio of systolic pressure to diastolic pressure. Systolic pressure is the pressure when the heart pumps blood out. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is the pressure when your heart is at the resting stage between heartbeats. The ideal blood pressure range lies between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg. It is considered high blood pressure if the blood pressure is 140/90 mmHg or greater.
