About this product

Overview

Irecon 150mg Tablet contains Irbesartan , which belongs to a class of medications known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and to protect the kidneys from damage due to diabetes. By blocking the action of angiotensin II, a substance in the body that causes blood vessels to tighten, Irbesartan relaxes blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and reducing blood pressure.

Common side effects of Irecon 150mg Tablet may include:

  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Fatigue

  • Diarrhea

Less common but more serious side effects can include:

  • Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing)
  • Kidney dysfunction
  • Hypotension (severely low blood pressure)
  • Muscle pain or weakness

Uses

  • Treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension)
  • Protects the kidneys from damage due to type 2 diabetes (diabetic nephropathy)
