• Treatment of orthostatic hypotension (low BP when a person stands up from a seated or lying)

The therapeutic effect of Cipmido Tablet is to increase blood pressure in individuals with low blood pressure or orthostatic hypotension. Acting as an alpha-1 adrenergic agonist and constricting blood vessels, helps to raise peripheral vascular resistance and improve blood flow to vital organs, particularly the brain. This medication enhances blood pressure and offers a therapeutic benefit by improving quality of life, functional capacity, and cognitive function in individuals with orthostatic hypotension.
