Uses of Depin Retard Tablet
Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure)
Benefits of Depin Retard Tablet
- In High blood pressure
- Depin Retard 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
- Depin Retard 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 Depin Retard Tablet works
Depin Retard Tablet PR is a calcium channel blocker. In high blood pressure, it normalizes the blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels to reduce the pressure on them, thereby improving the blood flow in the body. The enhanced blood flow in the body further relaxes the heart muscles by reducing the workload on the heart. It also improves the oxygen flow to the heart, thereby preventing any heart-related chest pain.
