COVERAM (PERINDOPRIL/AMLODIPINE)

Signs of High Blood Pressure

Unless you have severe high blood pressure, there are no symptoms or signs that anything is going on inside your body when, in fact, you could be at risk for a heart attack or stroke. This is why regular check-ups are important so your doctor can monitor your pressure and determine if medications are needed. Coveram contains 2 drugs that can work to decrease the force of the blood flow against the walls of your arteries that drives your blood pressure up.

How the Active Ingredients in Coveram Work

Perindopril is called an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that works by interfering with the activity of the angiotensin converting enzyme so it is limited when creating angiotensin II, a protein that can constrict your blood vessels. This action allows your blood vessels to remain open for a better blood flow and your heart does not have to work as hard to pump oxygenated blood to other organs and tissues.

Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that will work to stop calcium from entering into the muscle cells of your heart and arteries. This action decreases contractions of your heart and dilates your arteries so your blood can be pumped with less effort and strain on your heart. So together, Coveram lowers your blood pressure and you are less at risk for a heart attack, stroke, or kidney disease.

Risk Factors for Hypertension

Inactivity, bad eating habits, smoking, high alcohol consumption, stress, and genetics can play a part in why you have high blood pressure. Some people can reduce their risk of becoming hypertensive by exercising, eating healthier, reducing their alcohol intake, kicking their nicotine habit, and learning better ways to cope with stress. If you are prescribed Coveram, take your health more seriously and change your lifestyle so you can live longer and happier.

Before You Start Taking Coveram

Ask your doctor if Coveram is safe to take while you are pregnant, trying to conceive, or you are breast feeding. Your doctor should be aware of other medical conditions or allergies you have and knowledge of all OTC and Rx drugs you currently take or use, including herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements. This can determine whether Coveram is the right medication for you.

While You are Taking Coveram

Do not start, stop, or alter the dosage of other meds while taking Coveram without talking to your doctor first. Until you know how Coveram will affect your body, avoid driving, operating machinery, or taking part in any activity considered unsafe. Keep Coveram, and all other meds, out of children’s reach and never share them with others.
