Benefits of Nepresol Tablet

In Hypertension (high blood pressure)

Nepresol 25mg Tablet is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure. It works by relaxing blood vessels which lower blood pressure and allow more blood and oxygen to reach the heart and other organs.

You do not usually feel any direct benefit from taking this medicine, but it works in the long term to keep you well.

The most common symptoms are breathlessness, tiredness, and swelling in your legs, ankles, abdomen and other parts of your body.
