Espin AT Tablet belongs to the class of ‘antihypertensive drugs’, primarily used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension is a condition in which the blood exerts high pressure (force exerted by circulating blood) against the walls of blood vessels. This condition makes the heart work harder in pumping blood to the whole body. Hypertension can cause severe health complications, including stroke, heart failure, heart attack, and kidney failure.
Espin AT Tablet consists of Atenolol and S-Amlodipine. Atenolol is a beta-blocker that reduces the heart rate and makes the heart pump blood efficiently throughout the body. Atenolol is also used to protect the heart during the treatment of a heart attack. S-Amlodipine is a ‘calcium channel blocker.’ It relaxes the blood vessels so that blood passes through them easily, thereby lowering the blood pressure. S-Amlodipine also improves blood supply to the heart muscle to receive more oxygen and thus preventing chest pain.
Your doctor will advise you how often you take Espin Tablet 10’s based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience nausea, tiredness, stomach upset/constipation, cold hands or feet, flushing (sense of warmth in the face, ears, neck and trunk), dizziness, headache, sleepiness, palpitations (pounding of the heart), and swelling of the ankles or feet. Most of these side effects of EspinAT Tablet 10’s do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
Do not stop taking EspinAT Tablet 10’s without consulting your doctor since it may worsen your condition and increase the risk of future heart problems. Inform your doctor if you are suffering from kidney, liver or heart diseases (aortic stenosis), diabetes, asthma, and thyroid diseases. Reducing the amount of table salt (sodium chloride) in your food often relieves the body’s swelling and controls blood pressure. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please tell your doctor so that the dosage of EspinAT Tablet 10’s can be prescribed accordingly.
