Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Enapril-HT Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Enapril-HT Tablet works by combining the effects of two active ingredients:

Enalapril (10 mg): This ACE inhibitor blocks the ACE enzyme responsible for converting angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a substance that narrows blood vessels. By inhibiting this conversion, Enalapril relaxes blood vessels, thus lowering blood pressure.
Hydrochlorothiazide (25 mg): This diuretic increases the excretion of sodium and water from the body. This reduction in blood volume further lowers blood pressure. Additionally, it relaxes the blood vessels, contributing to the tablet's antihypertensive effect.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, Enapril-HT Tablet should be discontinued as soon as possible. Please consult your doctor before starting this medicine.

Both enalapril and hydrochlorothiazide, the active ingredients in Enapril-HT Tablet, passes into breast milk. If you're breastfeeding, exercise caution when taking this medication and consult your doctor.

Drug-Food Interactions

Drug-Disease Interactions

Enapril-HT Tablet interacts with the following diseases:

Hypotension: Enalapril, one of the components of Enapril-HT Tablet, might cause excessive low blood pressure, particularly in individuals with heart failure or renal artery stenosis.
Renal Impairment: Hydrochlorothiazide could worsen azotemia (raised level of urea in blood) in patients with kidney disease.
Electrolyte Imbalance: Hydrochlorothiazide might lead to imbalances such as low potassium levels (hypokalaemia), low sodium levels (hyponatremia), and an imbalance in acid-base resulting in abnormally high blood pH (hypochloraemic alkalosis).
Liver Disease: Caution is advised when using Enapril-HT Tablet if you have impaired liver function or progressive liver disease, as hydrochlorothiazide might not be metabolised effectively.

Your doctor will prescribe the daily dose of Enapril-HT Tablet. This may vary according to your condition and how you respond to the medicine. Always follow your doctor's instructions and avoid exceeding the dosage without a consultation.
