Tarka Information:
Tarka (generic name: Trandolapril/Verapamil) is a drug which is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. The active ingredients are Trandolapril and Verapamil. Trandolapril is an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor or “ACE” inhibitor. Verapamil is a calcium channel blocker and works by relaxing the muscles of the heart and blood vessels. The combination of drugs helps to lower blood pressure. Many patients with hypertension do not have any symptoms at all, which is why it has been dubbed “the silent killer”, it is therefore recommended that after age 60 you have your blood pressure checked on a regular basis – at least once every 6 months. Some people may experience symptoms such as dizziness and feelings of nausea. Hypertension is more common in women than men and the risk increases with age. Hypertension increases the risk of heart disease, angina, stroke and blood clots.
Tarka Side Effects:
As with any drug, there may be side effects from taking Tarka including cough, headache, runny or stuffy nose, constipation, diarrhea, dizziness, back pain, joint pain and nausea. More serious side effects may include urinating less often, feeling short of breath, swelling, weight gain, feeling like you might pass out, chest pain, slow heart rate and jaundice. If you experience any side effects you must seek medical attention immediately for safety.
Tarka Directions:
You should follow the instructions of the doctor who prescribed Tarka to you. Directions and dosage information can also be found on the pack or leaflet inside the pack. Tarka comes in tablet form. You should swallow Tarka whole with a glass of water. Tarka can be taken with or without food. Do not crush or chew tablets as this may result in too much of the drug being released which may have undesirable effects. Tarka should be stored at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat. Never stop or change your medication dosage without consulting your doctor.
Tarka Precautions:
