1. WHAT PERINDOPRIL TABLETS ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR
Perindopril belongs to a group of medicines called ACE inhibitors.
These work by widening
the blood vessels. This makes it easier for your heart to pump blood
through the body.
Perindopril Tablets are used to:

treat high blood pressure (hypertension).

treat heart failure (a condition where the heart is unable to pump
enough blood to meet
the body’s needs).

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.
2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE PERINDOPRIL TABLETS
DO NOT TAKE PERINDOPRIL TABLETS

other ingredients of
Perindopril Tablets (see Further Information, section 6) or to any

Hypertension
Perindopril can be used alone or in combination with other
