Description
Product Introduction:
Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR is a combination medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). This medicine is typically prescribed when a single antihypertensive medication is not effective on its own. By combining two active ingredients, Atenolol and Nifedipine, Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR works in different ways to lower blood pressure, thereby helping to prevent future heart attacks, strokes, and other complications associated with hypertension.
Key Ingredients:
- Atenolol (50mg): A beta-blocker that helps lower heart rate and reduces the heart’s workload, ultimately lowering blood pressure.
- Nifedipine (20mg): A calcium channel blocker that works by relaxing the blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow and reducing blood pressure.
Key Benefits:
- Reduces high blood pressure: By lowering blood pressure, Beta-Nicardia helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes.
- Prevents long-term complications: Regular use of this combination medicine helps prevent kidney problems, heart failure, and other complications linked to untreated hypertension.
- Dual action: The combination of Atenolol and Nifedipine provides complementary effects, ensuring better blood pressure control.
Uses of Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR:
- Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Beta-Nicardia is primarily used for controlling high blood pressure in patients who need a combination therapy to manage their condition.
Side Effects of Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR: Most side effects are mild and temporary, but you should consult your doctor if they persist or cause concern. Common side effects include:

How to Use Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR:
- Take as prescribed: Swallow the capsule whole. Do not chew, crush, or break it.

- Consistency: It is important to take the medicine regularly as prescribed, even if you feel well, since hypertension often has no noticeable symptoms.
How Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR Works: Beta-Nicardia Capsule SR is a combination of Atenolol (a beta-blocker) and Nifedipine (a calcium channel blocker). Together, these medicines work in different ways:
- Atenolol reduces heart rate and the force of contraction of the heart, decreasing blood pressure.
- Nifedipine relaxes and widens the blood vessels, improving blood flow and further reducing blood pressure.
