LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE

LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE is a combination medicine used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and reduce cholesterol levels. Also, it reduces the risk of heart attack or stroke. Hypertension is a condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the artery walls becomes so high that it causes health problems, such as heart disease.

LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE contains Atorvastatin (statin), Metoprolol (beta-blocker) and Ramipril (ACE inhibitor). Atorvastatin belongs to the class of statins or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors that work by inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme in the body that is essential to make cholesterol. Thereby, it decreases the production of LDL (bad cholesterol) by the liver. Also, it reduces the risk of stroke or heart attack by lowering the excess cholesterol deposition in the major blood vessels of the brain and heart. Metoprolol acts by inhibiting beta receptors in the heart, causing the heart to beat more slowly and with less power. Thereby, it decreases the pressure at which blood is pumped out of the heart and throughout the body. Ramipril works by blocking the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in the body. Thus, it reduces the production of angiotensin II, which causes constriction and narrowing of blood vessels. This allows the blood vessels to relax and widen and lower blood pressure.  

Take LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE for as long as your doctor has recommended it based on your medical condition. Sometimes, LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE may cause common side effects such as tiredness, dizziness, slow heartbeat, nausea, headache, orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure when standing up from sitting or lying position), and cold hands and feet. Most of these side effects of LIFEPILL 3MG CAPSULE do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

Ramipril works by decreasing the production of certain substances in the body that could raise blood pressure. Thus, it lowers blood pressure by relaxing and widening blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood around the body.
