Only product, safety and handling information is published here. Anything beyond that is explained to you directly by your doctor or pharmacist as part of your consultation.

Directions for Use

Take Blopress 16mg Tablet once daily, at about the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well, as blood pressure control needs to be continuous.

Dosage

The usual starting dose of Blopress 16mg Tablet for hypertension is 4-8mg once daily, which your doctor may increase up to 32mg daily depending on your blood pressure response. For heart failure, treatment usually starts at a lower dose with gradual titration under medical supervision. Always take the dose your doctor has prescribed for your specific condition.
