Joltan Plus 160mg / 25mg Caplets, 30 Caplets
If you have been diagnosed with high blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe Joltan Plus 160mg/25mg Caplets to help control your condition. Joltan Plus contains two active substances, valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide, which work together to lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and increasing the amount of urine produced.
Valsartan?belongs to a class of medicines known as ?angiotensin II receptor antagonists?, which help to control high blood pressure. Angiotensin II is a substance in the body that causes vessels to tighten, thus causing your blood pressure to increase. Valsartan works by blocking the effect of angiotensin II. As a result, blood vessels relax and blood pressure is lowered.
Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a group of medicines called thiazide diuretics (also known as ?water tablets?). Hydrochlorothiazide increases urine output, which also lowers blood pressure

What is High Blood Pressure?
High blood pressure increases the workload of the heart and arteries. If not treated, it can damage the blood vessels of the brain, heart, and kidneys, and may result in a stroke, heart failure or kidney failure.
High blood pressure increases the risk of heart attacks. Lowering your blood pressure to normal reduces the risk of developing these disorders.
The best way to maintain your blood pressure is by controlling it with medication. High levels can lead not only risky health issues but also serious complications, such as stroke or kidney failure! If you?re diagnosed and prescribed medicine for high BP (blood pressure), don?t hesitate in taking these medications every day without fail ? they?ll help keep the bad stuff away so that all we need worry about now are those happy days where our numbers stay low like this:
Blood pressure is recorded with 2 numbers. The systolic pressure (higher number) is the force at which your heart pumps blood around your body.
The diastolic pressure (lower number) is the resistance to the blood flow in the blood vessels.
They?re both measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg).
As a general guide:
high blood pressure is considered to be 140/90mmHg or higher (or 150/90mmHg or higher if you?re over the age of 80)
ideal?blood pressure is usually considered to be between 90/60mmHg and 120/80mmHg
Blood pressure readings between 120/80mmHg and 140/90mmHg could mean you?re at risk of developing high blood pressure if you do not take steps to keep your blood pressure under control.
Everyone?s blood pressure will be slightly different. What?s considered low or high for you may be normal for someone else.
If your blood pressure is too high, it puts extra strain on your blood vessels, heart and other organs, such as the brain, kidneys and eyes.
Persistent high blood pressure can increase your risk of a number of serious and potentially life-threatening health conditions, such as:
heart disease
heart attacks
strokes
heart failure
peripheral arterial disease
aortic aneurysms
kidney disease
vascular dementia
If you have high blood pressure,?reducing it even a small amount can help lower your risk of these health conditions.
It?s not always clear what causes high blood pressure, but there are things that can increase your risk.
You might be more at risk if you:
are?overweight
eat too much salt and do not eat?enough fruit and vegetables
do not?do enough exercise
drink?too much?alcohol?or?coffee (or other caffeine-based drinks)
smoke
do not get much sleep or have disturbed sleep
are over 65
have a relative with high blood pressure
are of black African or black Caribbean descent
live in a deprived area
Making healthy lifestyle changes can sometimes help reduce your chances of getting high blood pressure and help lower your blood pressure?if it?s already high.
