Indapamide 2.5mg Tablets Zentiva
Indapamide 2.5 mg is a prescription diuretic tablet — commonly called a "water pill" — used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce excess fluid build-up (oedema) associated with heart failure or kidney conditions. By helping the kidneys remove extra salt and water from the body, it lowers blood pressure and reduces swelling, helping to protect the heart, kidneys, and blood vessels from long-term damage.
It is taken once daily, usually in the morning, and is often prescribed as part of a broader blood pressure management plan alongside lifestyle changes or other medications.
