Listen 10 mg Tablet

Listen 10 mg Tablet contains 10 mg of lisinopril in each tablet. It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used to help treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and to improve survival after a heart attack in selected patients. By lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart, Listen 10 mg Tablet can help protect the heart, brain, and kidneys over time. It is a prescription tablet made by Litaka Pharmaceuticals Ltd. for oral use.

How it works: Lisinopril in Listen 10 mg Tablet blocks the ACE enzyme, which helps relax blood vessels so blood can flow more easily and the heart does not have to work as hard. As a swallowed tablet, it is absorbed through the digestive tract and begins lowering blood pressure gradually after it is taken.

Listen 10 mg Tablet is a middle-strength lisinopril tablet that may be chosen when a clinician wants a standard dose that is stronger than very low starting amounts but still easy to adjust.
