Structure:

Each tablet contains:

Carvedilol – 6.25mg

Properties:

Carvedilol is a cardioprotective non-cardioselective drug that blocks beta-adrenergic receptors (beta-blocker), which has an arteriolar vasodilator effect by blocking alpha-1 receptors and thus reduces peripheral resistance.

Indications:

Hypertension, angina pectoris, chronic heart failure, left ventricular dysfunction after acute myocardial infarction.

Mode of application.

Hypertension: initial dose of 12.5 mg once a day or individually increase after 3 days to the usual dose of 25 mg once a day. If necessary, it can be further increased at intervals of at least 7-14 days to a maximum daily dose of 50 mg, administered 1 time per day or in divided doses. The effect appears within 7-14 days. Angina pectoris: start with 12.5 mg 2 times a day, increase after 2 days to 25 mg 2 times a day. Heart failure: The dosage must be prescribed by a physician. The recommended starting dose for CARVID is 3.125 mg twice daily for 2 weeks. If tolerated by patients, the dose can be increased to 6.25, 12.5 and 25 mg 2 times a day at successive intervals of at least 2 weeks. The maximum dose of 50 mg 2 times a day is prescribed for patients with mild to moderate heart failure weighing more than 85 kg. Left ventricular dysfunction after myocardial infarction. The dosage is prescribed by your doctor. It is recommended to start taking CARVID at a dose of 6.25 mg 2 times a day and increase after 3-10 days, based on tolerability, to 12.5 mg 2 times a day, and then again to the target dose of 25 mg 2 times a day. A lower starting dose (3.125 mg 2 times a day) can be used.
