TIAZAC EXTENDED RELEASE 120 mg/1

Tiazac Extended Release 120 mg capsules are a calcium channel blocker used for managing high blood pressure and chronic stable angina. This extended-release formulation provides prolonged relief.

Tiazac Extended Release 120 mg capsules are primarily used for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) and chronic stable angina. This medication works by relaxing blood vessels, which helps to lower blood pressure and improve blood flow to the heart. It is often prescribed when other treatments have not been effective or well-tolerated. The extended-release formulation ensures a steady release of the active ingredient, diltiazem hydrochloride, over time.

Common effects of Tiazac Extended Release 120 mg capsules may include dizziness, headache, and fatigue. Some users may also experience swelling in the legs or ankles, flushing, and nausea. These effects are generally mild and temporary, but if they persist or worsen, it is important to consult a healthcare provider.

Tiazac Extended Release 120 mg capsules should be handled with care. Store the medication at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Do not crush or chew the capsules, as this can affect the extended-release mechanism. Always follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by your healthcare provider.

Tiazac Extended Release 120 mg capsules may interact with other medications, including beta-blockers, digoxin, and certain antibiotics. Alcohol consumption should be avoided, as it can enhance the sedative effects of the medication. Always inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
