Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Cilacar 5 Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Cilacar 5 Tablet

Cilacar 5 Tablet contains Cilnidipine 5 mg. It belongs to the Calcium channel blocker (dihydropyridine; L/N-type blocker) class of medicines.

Uses of Cilacar 5 Tablet

Hypertension (high blood pressure)

Benefits of Cilacar 5 Tablet

In High blood pressure
Cilacar relaxes the muscle in the walls of your arteries so blood flows with less pressure. Keeping blood pressure down protects you from stroke, heart attack and kidney damage over the years.
In Angina
Cilacar widens the vessels that supply the heart and eases its workload, so you get fewer episodes of chest pain and can do more before pain comes on.

How Cilacar 5 Tablet works

Cilnidipine lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels via L-type calcium channel blockade. Its N-type calcium channel blockade may reduce sympathetic overactivity and help control BP.

How to take Cilacar 5 Tablet

Take once daily as prescribed, at the same time each day. May be taken with or without food. Continue regularly even if you feel well; monitor BP.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause a severe fall in blood pressure and a dangerously slow or irregular heartbeat. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Cilacar 5 Tablet

Most side effects of Cilacar are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
