This disease occurs with janitors and directors of the most serious enterprises. Hypertension spares no one. Not always obvious, it undermines the resources of our heart, forcing it to work harder and threatening to make it stop sooner or later. Can anything be done to prevent such consequences? Yes, you can take the medicine "Lorista."
Instructions for use among the indications primarily mention the notorious arterial hypertension. But the list is not limited to this ailment. Also, the medicine is recommended for older people, for whom there is a serious risk of stroke. It also helps with chronic heart diseases, for example, with heart failure. Of course, in the latter case, only the means of Lorista is not enough.
Instructions for use also indicate an interesting fact - this tool helps protect the kidneys of diabetics. In such patients, there is a secretion of protein in the urine, which is very bad for the kidneys. Often, many of them sooner or later come to the need for dialysis. But those of diabetics who take the drug "Lorista" are much less likely to be in a hospital bed.
Is Lorista absorbed well? Instructions for use answer this question positively. And it does not matter whether there was a meal before or after taking the remedy. Although not a very large percentage is absorbed (about 30%), but the desired concentration in the blood is usually reached quite quickly (one of the active substances is already active in an hour, the second in 3-4 hours).
It is not necessary to drink it several times a day, which means a fairly comfortable dosage regimen. One tablet is enough, but it is best to take it constantly at the same time to reduce the likelihood of forgetting about the next dose.
Usually limited to the appointment of 50 mg per day, but sometimes you can double the dose, the effect does not come very quickly, but after a month and a half. Elderly patients are prescribed the same doses as young patients; dose changes are not required for those who are forced to undergo dialysis. This remedy does not affect the kidneys very badly; therefore, the usual restrictions do not apply in this case. But for suffering from liver diseases, doses are prescribed much less, since this organ processes the drug. Lorista is not the easiest medicine, it has quite a few side effects.
If heart failure is treated with the drug, then the medication under discussion alone is not enough, it is necessary to take simultaneously cardiac glycosides with diuretics. With this disease, the dose is doubled every new week, until the figures of 100 mg are reached (in the 4th week). It is clear that you need to be careful and carefully treat your condition during this gradual increase in dose.
Those with an increased risk of stroke should start with 50 mg, over time this amount can be increased or decreased, depending on the observed effect in relation to pressure. In practice, even half of this dose is enough for many, so do not overload the liver without much need.
Diabetics are also recommended first 50 mg, later it is possible to change the amount of the substance taken depending on the effectiveness of the drug and the presence or absence of protein in the urine of a diabetic patient.
There are many side effects. Often patients suffer from dizziness, fatigue, drowsiness. Occasionally, even depression may occur. At the same time, migraine and sleep disturbances appear in the unit, and memory disorders can occur .
To whom is the Lorista medicine contraindicated? Instructions for use say that those who are used to drinking a little water, suffering from low blood pressure. Try not to prescribe this tool during pregnancy. Do not use it for patients who are prone to a delay in potassium in the body.
