WHAT COVERSYL ARGININE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Coversyl Arginine is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)
inhibitor. These work by widening the blood vessels, which makes
it easier for your heart to pump blood through them.
COVERSYL ARGININE IS USED:

to treat _HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE _(hypertension)

to treat _HEART FAILURE _(a condition where the heart is unable to
pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs),

to reduce the risk of cardiac events such as heart attack, in
patients with _STABLE CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE _(a condition where
the blood supply to the heart is reduced or blocked) and who
have already had a heart attack and/or an operation to improve
the blood supply to the heart by widening the vessels that
supply it.
