Metalodax-2.5 mg Tablet 10's is an antihypertensive drug that is used for the treatment of hypertension. Metalodax-2.5 mg Tablet 10's comes under the category of thiazide diuretic that prevents the body from absorbing an excessive amount of salt that may cause fluid retention. High blood pressure is known as hypertension. This is a medical condition in which the blood exerts high blood pressure against the walls of the blood vessel. Due to this, the heart has to work harder to pump the blood supply into the whole body. Hypertension can put a person on severe health complications, including stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and aneurysm.
Blood pressure is defined by the amount of blood pumped by the heart and the amount of resistance exerted by the arteries against the blood flow. During hypertension, arteries become narrower, and the heart starts pumping more blood resulting in high blood pressure. Uncontrolled blood pressure can put a person at risk of serious diseases.
