Ciplar LA 20mg is a prescription medicine to prevent chest pain and improve the survival of a heart attack. The medicine reduces blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels and heart rate. Ciplar is given for various cardiovascular conditions like hypertension, angina pectoris, tremors, and arrhythmias.  The active ingredient of Ciplar LA 20 is Propranolol, a beta-adrenergic receptor blocker widely used as an antihypertensive medicine to treat various health concerns. Propranolol works by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors, primarily in the heart, which reduces the effects of adrenaline. This slows the heart rate, decreases blood pressure, and makes it easier for the heart to pump blood.

This medicine also works to reduce the frequency and severity of migraine headaches.

Propranolol Ciplar effectively controls irregular or fast heartbeats and other symptoms that may caused by an overactive thyroid gland. Propranolol prevents stomach bleeding in patients with high blood pressure in their liver. 

Some specific uses of Propranolol tablets include:

  1. Hypertension - Helps lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems.
  2. Angina (chest pain) - Improves blood flow and reduces chest pain.
  3. Arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) - Helps control abnormal heart rhythms.
  4. Migraine prevention: Reduces the frequency of migraines by stabilizing blood flow in the brain.
  5. Anxiety - Often prescribed for physical symptoms of anxiety, like rapid heartbeat and sweating.
  6. Tremors - Used to control involuntary tremors, particularly in conditions like essential tremors.

 

Usage instructions of Propranolol tablets

Depending on your doctor's recommendation, Ciplar LA 20mg is typically taken once or twice daily. Since it's a long-acting medication, take it around the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your body. Ciplar LA can be taken with or without food. However, taking it with food might reduce any stomach discomfort. Don't stop taking the medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to withdrawal effects or worsen your condition. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it's almost time for your next dose. Don't double the dose to make up for the missed one.

Alcohol can increase drowsiness and other side effects; it is best to limit or avoid it while on Ciplar LA.

Precautions with Propranolol tablets

When taking Propranolol, there are several precautions to keep in mind to ensure the medication's safety and effectiveness. Inform your doctor if you have conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, diabetes, heart block, liver or kidney disease, or any other heart problems. Propranolol can worsen breathing conditions like asthma and affect blood sugar levels, so it's important for your doctor to know if you have these conditions or are taking any medicines for that.

Propranolol may reduce your ability to exercise by slowing down your heart rate, which can lead to fatigue. Take it easy during physical activities, especially when first starting the medication.

Let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Propranolol Ciplar LA can affect the baby and should only be used if necessary. Inform your doctor about all other medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. Ciplar LA may interact with other blood pressure medications, antidepressants, antiarrhythmics, and certain allergy medications.

Propranolol can cause dizziness or drowsiness, so be cautious when driving or doing tasks requiring full alertness, especially when you start taking it or after a dose adjustment.

Always consult your doctor if you have questions or experience unusual symptoms while taking this medicine.

Side effects of Propranolol tablets

Propranolol can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. Here are some of the most common and a few serious side effects to be aware of:

Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue, nausea or upset stomach, difficulty sleeping, and cold hands and feet. Some less common side effects are slow heart rate, shortness of breath, mood change, and constipation. Serious and rare side effects of Propranolol are worsening breathing issues, severe allergic reactions, and low blood sugar levels.

Most mild side effects often improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Avoid abrupt changes in position to prevent dizziness. Take the medicine with food to reduce nausea.
