Medication entries grouped here
Strengths, dosage forms, brands, or package entries may vary. Your prescription label and pharmacist counselling are the instructions to follow.
| Brand / Generic | Strength | Form | DIN | Record |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Coversyl Perindopril | 4mg | Tablet | Active |
Yes — about 1 in 10 people get it. Tell your prescriber. An ARB-class drug often replaces it without the cough.
Take Perindopril before food, ideally first thing in the morning.
Anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can blunt the blood-pressure effect and stress the kidneys. Ask the pharmacist before starting NSAIDs long-term.
