Concor Plus 10 Mg 30 Tablets

Concor Plus 10 Mg 30 Tablets

Description:

Concor Plus 10 mg 30 tablets is a prescription antihypertensive medicine that combines the beta-blocker bisoprolol fumarate with the thiazide diuretic hydrochlorothiazide. It is used for the long-term management of high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults, helping to reduce cardiovascular risk such as heart attack and stroke. By slowing the heart rate and promoting gentle removal of excess salt and water, Concor Plus provides effective blood pressure control in a convenient once-daily tablet.

Indications:

• Treatment of essential hypertension (high blood pressure) in adults.
• Management of patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with bisoprolol or hydrochlorothiazide alone.
• Reduction of cardiovascular risk associated with uncontrolled high blood pressure, such as risk of heart attack and stroke (as part of an overall treatment plan prescribed by a doctor).
• Helps relieve hypertension-related symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, palpitations and fatigue associated with elevated blood pressure (when due to hypertension).

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Bisoprolol fumarate – 10 mg per film-coated tablet (beta-1 selective adrenergic blocker).
• Hydrochlorothiazide – 25 mg per film-coated tablet (thiazide diuretic).
• Other excipients: film-coating and tablet core ingredients (full excipient list not available in the provided information).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Usual adult dose: 1 tablet once daily, or as directed by your physician.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew.
• Can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels.
• Do not change the dose or stop taking Concor Plus suddenly without consulting your doctor, as abrupt discontinuation of beta-blockers may worsen heart conditions or blood pressure control.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember on the same day. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
• Use only under medical supervision. Dose adjustments may be required in patients with kidney or liver impairment, elderly patients, or those on other antihypertensive medicines.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides dual-action blood pressure control by combining a beta-blocker (bisoprolol) with a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide).
• Helps lower high blood pressure, reducing the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke.
• Slows heart rate and decreases the workload on the heart, supporting overall cardiovascular health.
• Promotes gentle elimination of excess salt and water, helping to reduce blood volume and blood pressure.
• Convenient once-daily dosing improves adherence to long-term hypertension treatment.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to bisoprolol, hydrochlorothiazide, other thiazide diuretics, or any component of the product.
• Contraindicated in pregnancy: hydrochlorothiazide is contraindicated in pregnancy; therefore, this combination must not be used during pregnancy.
• Contraindicated during breastfeeding: hydrochlorothiazide is contraindicated in lactation; this combination must not be used while breastfeeding.
• Contraindicated in severe bradycardia, cardiogenic shock, overt heart failure not controlled by treatment, second- or third-degree atrioventricular (AV) block without a pacemaker, and severe peripheral circulatory disorders.
• Use with caution in patients with diabetes, gout, kidney impairment, liver impairment, electrolyte imbalance (low potassium, low sodium), psoriasis, or history of severe allergic reactions.
• May mask symptoms of hypoglycemia in diabetic patients (such as rapid heartbeat); monitor blood glucose regularly.
• May cause electrolyte disturbances (especially low potassium, low sodium) and changes in uric acid; periodic blood tests may be required.
• Can cause dizziness or fatigue; avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.
• Inform your doctor about all other medicines you are taking, especially other antihypertensives, antiarrhythmics, insulin or oral antidiabetics, NSAIDs, lithium, or other diuretics.
• Consult your doctor before use if you have asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, as beta-blockers may worsen bronchospasm.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking other medications, or if you have any chronic medical conditions such as heart disease, kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, or gout.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical supervision.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects: dizziness, fatigue, headache, cold hands or feet, slow heart rate, mild gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, abdominal discomfort), increased urination (especially at the start of treatment), and mild electrolyte changes.
• Less common side effects: low blood pressure (hypotension), muscle cramps, joint pain, sleep disturbances, depression, visual disturbances, or skin reactions such as rash or itching.
• Serious side effects (seek immediate medical attention): severe dizziness or fainting, very slow heartbeat, difficulty breathing or wheezing, swelling of face, lips or tongue (signs of allergic reaction), severe abdominal pain, sudden changes in vision, or signs of severe electrolyte imbalance (confusion, irregular heartbeat, severe muscle weakness).
