Description:
Candesartan FT tablets are a prescription medication used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children aged 6 to 18. They are also used to treat heart failure in adults with impaired left ventricular function.
Available Strengths:
- Candesartan FT 8 mg: Round, biconvex, pink, scored tablets on one side.
- Candesartan FT 16 mg: Round, biconvex, pink tablets scored on one side.
- Candesartan FT 32 mg: Round, biconvex, pink tablets scored on one side.
Features:
- Easy to divide: Each tablet can be divided in half according to the score line, allowing for precise dosing.
- Effective and long-lasting: Provides effective blood pressure control with a single daily dose.
- Widely studied and proven: Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of Candesartan FT in managing hypertension and heart failure.
Important Information:
- Dual blockade of the RAAS (Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System): The combined use of Candesartan FT with ACE inhibitors, ARBs, or aliskiren is generally not recommended due to increased risk of hypotension, hyperkalemia, and impaired kidney function.
- Co-administration with ACE inhibitors: In patients with heart failure, co-administration of Candesartan FT and an ACE inhibitor may increase the risk of adverse effects. Specialist supervision and careful monitoring are required.
- Impaired renal function: Candesartan FT should be used with caution in patients with impaired renal function, and close monitoring of blood pressure and serum potassium/creatinine levels is recommended.
- Pregnancy: Candesartan FT should not be used during pregnancy. Alternative antihypertensive treatments should be considered.
- Hypotension: Hypotension may occur in patients with heart failure or reduced blood volume, especially when initiating therapy.
Packaging:
Each package contains 3 blister packs, each holding 10 tablets, along with an information leaflet.
