Carzec 6.25 Tablet

Carzec 6.25 Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains carvedilol 6.25 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the beta-blocker class, with additional alpha-blocking activity, and is used to help treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and to support recovery after a heart attack in appropriate patients. Carzec 6.25 Tablet is an oral tablet made by Oaknet Healthcare and is taken by mouth as directed by a clinician.

How it works: Carvedilol in Carzec 6.25 Tablet helps relax blood vessels and slow the heart rate, which lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart's workload. As a tablet, it is swallowed and absorbed to provide steady carvedilol levels over time when taken consistently.

Carzec 6.25 Tablet is a mid-strength carvedilol tablet, higher than Carzec 3.125 Tablet and lower than Carzec 12.5 Tablet. Doctors may choose this strength when a lower dose has been tolerated and they want a step-up that can improve blood pressure or heart failure control without jumping straight to the stronger tablet. Because carvedilol can lower heart rate and blood pressure, this strength is typically selected for people who need a carefully adjusted dose rather than a first-ever starting dose.

• High blood pressure
• Heart failure
• Post-heart attack support in selected patients
• Lowering strain on the heart

• Swallow Carzec 6.25 Tablet with water; do not crush or chew unless your prescriber specifically tells you to.
• Take it with food to help reduce dizziness and improve tolerability.
• Take it at the same time each day so your body gets a regular dose.
• If your doctor prescribes it twice daily, space the doses evenly through the day.
• Stand up slowly after taking it, especially at first, because carvedilol can cause lightheadedness.
• Do not stop Carzec 6.25 Tablet suddenly without medical advice, especially if you take it for heart disease.

Each Carzec 6.25 Tablet provides carvedilol 6.25 mg per tablet. It may be taken once daily or more often depending on the reason for treatment, but the exact schedule and maximum daily dose are set by the doctor based on blood pressure, heart rate, and how well you tolerate therapy.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
