Introduction to Prohype Sr Capsule
Prohype SR Capsule contains an active ingredient called Propranolol which belongs to the medication class known as beta-blockers. Beta-blockers are medications that block the effects of stress hormones on the heart and blood vessels, commonly used to treat cardiovascular conditions. It is used to treat several conditions, including hypertension (high blood pressure), angina (chest pain), arrhythmias (heart rhythm disorders), post-myocardial infarction (heart attack) protection, migraine, essential tremor, anxiety, thyrotoxicosis (excess thyroid hormone activity), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (thickened heart muscle), phaeochromocytoma (high blood pressure due to a tumor near the kidney), and esophageal bleeding caused by high blood pressure in the liver.
Do not consume Prohype SR Capsule if you are allergic to Propranolol and its other ingredients. This medicine is not suggested for individuals with uncontrolled heart failure, certain heart conditions such as heart block, excessively slow or irregular heartbeats, very low blood pressure, severe circulatory problems, fasting or recent fasting, untreated phaeochromocytoma (high blood pressure caused by a tumor near the kidney), metabolic acidosis (excessive acidity in the body fluids), or Prinzmetal's angina. Â
