CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S belongs to the class of medications called ‘antihypertensives’ used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension is a lifelong condition in which there is a persistent rise in blood pressure. The rise in blood pressure occurs when the force exerted by the blood against the blood vessel (arteries wall) increases. The higher this blood pressure, the harder the heart has to pump. As a result, it leads to heart diseases, irregular heartbeat, and other complications.
CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S is a combination of two medicines: Cilnidipine and Chlorthalidone. Cilnidipine blocks the calcium channels present in the blood vessels of the heart. This effect widens the blood vessels lowering the pressure exerted by the blood on the walls of blood vessels. It decreases the workload on the heart. It also reduces the risk of heart attack or stroke. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic or water pill. It acts by getting rid of excess water and salts in the body by increasing urination, thereby reducing blood pressure. It helps to reduce edema (fluid buildup) and swelling associated with hypertension.
You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S are low blood pressure (feeling light-headed), dizziness, headache, palpitations (racing or pounding heart), increased frequency of urination, lethargy (lack of energy), peripheral edema (swelling of legs/hands), flushing (skin reddening), rash, impotence (erectile dysfunction), and gingival hyperplasia (gum overgrowth). Inform your doctor if any of these side-effects persist or get worsen.
Do not take CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S if you are allergic to Chlorthalidone, Cilnidipine, or any other ingredients present in it. Do not take CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S if you are unable to urinate or allergic to sulfa drugs. Before taking CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S, inform your doctor if you have kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, gout (a type of arthritis), high cholesterol, aortic stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve), cardiogenic shock (sudden stopping of blood flow to the heart), or if you are on a low-salt diet. Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

It helps to reduce edema (fluid buildup) and swelling associated with hypertension. Together, CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S can effectively reduce the blood pressure and the complications associated with this condition such as heart attack.
CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S may cause electrolyte imbalances (low levels of potassium, sodium, or magnesium in your blood). So, consult your doctor immediately if you have vomiting or diarrhoea, as CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S used in this condition may lead to severe dehydration. Your doctor may perform blood and urine tests to monitor electrolyte levels. CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S may cause dizziness, so avoid rising up too fast from a sitting or lying position. Stay hydrated and avoid hot weather as CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S increases the frequency of urination. Do not stop taking CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S abruptly, as it may increase the risk of a heart attack.
Drug-drug interactions: CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S may interact with other blood pressure-lowering medications, anticancer drug (aldesleukin), a medication used to treat arrhythmias (quinidine), antiepileptic medicine (phenytoin), antitubercular drug (rifampicin), an antibiotic (erythromycin), steroids, a medication used to treat diabetes (insulin), other oral diabetes medicines, anti-psychotic drug (lithium), and a medication used to treat heart failure (digoxin).
Drug-food interactions: You are recommended to avoid alcohol as it may increase the risk of side-effects.
Drug-disease interactions: CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S is not recommended for use in patients with nil urine output (anuria). It should be used with caution in patients with kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, gout (a type of arthritis), high cholesterol, aortic stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve), and cardiogenic shock (sudden stopping of blood flow to the heart).
Alcohol consumption may worsen the condition by increasing the risk of side-effects.
There is no sufficient evidence to claim that Cilnidipine can be used safely during pregnancy. On the other hand, Chlorthalidone may cause jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), low blood sugar, and bruising in newborn babies when used in pregnant women. So, use CTD C 12.5/10MG TABLET 10'S with caution in pregnant women.

Hypertension: It is a chronic condition when blood pressure is too high. This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels), decreasing the blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Blood pressure is the measurement of the force that our heart uses to pump blood to all parts of the body. Raised blood pressure can cause chest pain (angina) and heart attack (when blood supply to the heart is blocked). Additionally, high blood pressure also causes brain damage (stroke) and kidney failure. High blood pressure can be diagnosed with the help of a blood pressure monitor or sphygmomanometer. Systolic pressure is the pressure when the heart pumps blood out. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is the pressure when your heart is at the resting stage between heartbeats. If your blood pressure is 140/90 mm of Hg, it means the systolic pressure is 140 mm of Hg and, diastolic pressure is 90 mm of Hg. Ideal blood pressure should be between 90/60 mm of Hg and 120/80 mm of Hg.
