Frequently asked questions about Eptus Products
Frequently asked questions about Eplerenone
Q. What does Eptus 50 Tablet do? Is it a beta blocker or a diuretic?
Eptus 50 Tablet is a potassium-sparing diuretic. It is prescribed with other medicines to control increased blood pressure and to treat heart failure in patients who have had a heart attack. It is not a beta blocker but mineralocorticoid receptor blocker.
Q. How long does Eptus 50 Tablet take to work?
Eptus 50 Tablet controls high blood pressure but does not cure it. You may not see any improvement because high blood pressure does not have any symptoms. But, if you get your blood pressure checked, you may notice a change within 2 weeks of starting Eptus 50 Tablet. However, the medicine may take 4 weeks or longer to show its maximum benefits.
Q. Does Eptus 50 Tablet cause erectile dysfunction?
No, Eptus 50 Tablet does not cause erectile dysfunction. Eptus 50 Tablet does not have any effect on fertility, in both males and females.
Q. My blood pressure is now controlled, still the doctor has asked me to continue the treatment. Can I stop Eptus 50 Tablet?
No, you should not stop Eptus 50 Tablet. If your doctor has advised you to continue treatment, keep taking it. Eptus 50 Tablet does not cure blood pressure, but keeps the blood pressure in control. Therefore, keep taking the medicine even if your blood pressure is controlled. Stopping it may make your condition worse and you may have unwanted side effects.
Q. Eptus 50 Tablet is a potassium-sparing diuretic. Does this mean that I will have more potassium in my body? Will it be beneficial for me?
Potassium-sparing diuretic are those medicines which increase the urination without causing any loss in potassium levels. Eptus 50 Tablet allows sodium loss by body in exchange for potassium which is retained. It may result in an increase in the levels of potassium. Therefore, your doctor may monitor your potassium levels continuously. You may need to get it measured before starting Eptus 50 Tablet, within the first week and one month after the start of treatment or after a change in dose. Potassium levels above normal range are not good for you or anyone.
Q. Does Eptus 50 Tablet have any effect on the blood sugar levels?
Although it is not very common, but Eptus 50 Tablet may increase your blood sugar levels. Therefore, it is important that you keep a regular check on your blood sugar levels if you are a diabetic. The use of Eptus 50 Tablet should be avoided in patients who have type 2 diabetes along with some kidney problem in which the patient loses protein (albumin) in very small quantities in urine.
Q. I had been using Losartan for quite some time and was tolerating it well. Now my doctor has prescribed me Eptus 50 Tablet along with Hydrochlorothiazide. I want to know why he just could not add Eptus 50 Tablet with Losartan?
It could be possible that Losartan was not able to control your blood pressure adequately. Therefore, your doctor may have suggested an alternative medicine for blood pressure control (Eptus 50 Tablet), but Eplerenone when taken with Losartan can enhance the chances of raised potassium levels which could be harmful for you. To prevent this rise in potassium levels, the combination of Eptus 50 Tablet with hydrochlorothiazide may have been prescribed.
Q. Is there anything I need to be careful about if I am taking aspirin and have now started Eptus 50 Tablet?
Aspirin may interfere with the working of Eptus 50 Tablet due to which your blood pressure may not get adequately controlled. Aspirin and Eptus 50 Tablet may increase the chances of rise in potassium levels in patients with kidney problems. Therefore, if both are to be used together, keep monitoring your blood pressure and potassium levels.
