perindopriil
Perindopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. It works by relaxing blood vessels, which lowers blood pressure and reduces the workload on the heart. Perindopril is available in tablet form and is typically taken once daily. Common side effects include cough, dizziness, and fatigue. Serious side effects may include kidney problems, which is why it is important to monitor kidney function while taking this medication. Perindopril should be used with caution in patients with kidney disease, liver disease, or diabetes. It is also important to inform healthcare providers about all medications being taken, as perindopril can interact with other drugs. Perindopril is not recommended for use in patients with severe liver disease or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting or stopping perindopril, or if you experience any concerning symptoms.
