Composition of Betacap TR 20 Capsule
Betacap TR 20 Capsule contains Propranolol (20mg). It belongs to the Non-selective beta-adrenergic blocker (beta-blocker) class of medicines.
Uses of Betacap TR 20 Capsule
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Angina pectoris
- Prevention of migraine
- Control of palpitations
- Tachyarrhythmias
- Essential tremor
- Anxiety-related symptoms (performance anxiety) as advised by doctor
Benefits of Betacap TR 20 Capsule
- In High blood pressure
- Betacap TR slows the heart a little and lets it beat with less force, bringing blood pressure down and reducing the long-term risk of stroke and heart attack.
- In Angina
- Betacap TR reduces how hard the heart has to work, so it needs less oxygen and you get fewer episodes of chest pain on exertion.
- In Heart failure
- Betacap TR protects a weakened heart from the stress hormones that would otherwise strain it further, improving how well it pumps over time and lowering the risk of hospital admission.
- In Irregular heartbeat
- Betacap TR steadies the heart's rhythm and keeps the rate from racing, which eases palpitations and the dizziness or breathlessness that come with them.
How Betacap TR 20 Capsule works
Propranolol is a non-selective beta-blocker that blocks beta-1 and beta-2 receptors. It reduces heart rate and force of contraction and lowers blood pressure by decreasing cardiac output and suppressing renin release, thereby reducing workload on the heart.
How to take Betacap TR 20 Capsule
Take as prescribed. Swallow the capsule whole; do not crush or chew (TR/extended release). Usually taken once daily at the same time each day, with or without food; take consistently with respect to meals.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
