What is Cilacar (Cilnidipine) used for?

Cilacar (Cilnidipine) is an oral calcium channel blocker used to treat patients suffering from hypertension. It operates by preventing the constriction of blood vessels to increase circulation and reduce the amount of work required by the heart to pump the blood. This treatment may prevent symptoms such as faintness, headaches, agitation, or chest pain. Your doctor may also prescribe this medication for the treatment of other unlisted conditions.

How should I use Cilacar (Cilnidipine)?

Cilacar (Cilnidipine) should always be used strictly according to your doctor`s instructions to get the safest and most effective results from treatment. One tablet is normally taken once daily, but your particular directions will be based on your age, weight, health, the condition being treated, and the severity of your symptoms. These doses should be swallowed with a full glass of water and may be taken on an empty stomach. Do not change the form of the tablets by splitting or crushing them as this may destroy or alter the effects of their contents.

What are the side effects of Cilacar (Cilnidipine)?

Cilacar (Cilnidipine) may cause side effects in some patients including:
