WHAT AVANCARDO IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Avancardo is a combination of two active ingredients, perindopril and indapamide. It is an antihypertensive and is used in the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). Avancardo 10 mg/2.5 mg is prescribed for patients already receiving perindopril 10 mg and indapamide 2.5 mg from separate tablets, these patients may instead receive one tablet of Avancardo 10 mg/2.5 mg which contains both ingredients. Perindopril belongs to a class of medicines called ACE inhibitors. These work by widening the blood vessels, which makes it easier for your heart to pump blood through them. Indapamide is a diuretic. Diuretics increase the amount of urine produced by the kidneys. However, indapamide is different from other diuretics, as it only causes a slight increase in the amount of urine produced. Each of the active ingredients reduces blood pressure and they work together to control your blood pressure. 2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE AVANCARDO DO NOT TAKE AVANCARDO - if you are allergic to perindopril or any other ACE inhibitor, or to indapamide or any other sulphonam Aqra d-dokument sħiħ
