Macsart Beta 50 Tablet ER

Description

Macsart Beta 50 Tablet ER is a prescription medicine formulated with a combination of Telmisartan (40mg) and Metoprolol Succinate (50mg). It belongs to the class of antihypertensive medicines and is widely used for the management of high blood pressure and heart-related disorders.

• Telmisartan (40mg): An Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB) that relaxes and widens blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily. This helps lower blood pressure and reduces the risk of damage to vital organs such as the heart, brain, and kidneys.

• Metoprolol Succinate (50mg): A beta-blocker that works by slowing down the heart rate and reducing the force of contraction, thereby decreasing the heart’s workload. It helps in controlling high blood pressure, preventing angina (chest pain), and lowering the risk of heart attack.

This dual-therapy approach ensures effective blood pressure control and provides protection against severe cardiovascular complications like stroke, heart attack, and heart failure. The extended-release (ER) formulation ensures a sustained effect with once-daily dosing.
