Ibada 5 Tablet is a medicine used for the treatment of angina (heart-related chest pain) and chronic (long-term) heart failure. It makes the heart work more efficiently by lowering the heart rate. This relieves chest pain and decreases the risk of hospitalization in heart failure patients.
The dose will depend on what you are being treated for. Since the treatment for angina or heart failure is usually lifelong, you should not stop using it without talking to your doctor. It should be taken with food at the same time each day. If you take too much in one go, your heart could slow down too much and make you feel breathless or tired. If this happens, call a doctor.
The most common side effects are temporary brightness/flashes in your vision, slow heart rate, high blood pressure, atrial fibrillation, dizziness, blurred vision, and ECG changes. Some side effects, such as fainting and significant changes to your heartbeat, may be very serious and may need urgent medical attention. Avoid driving until you know how this medicine will affect you.
Do not use Ibada 5 Tablet if you have severe liver disease, a low resting heart rate, or a heart rhythm disorder. This medicine is also not suitable if you have very low blood pressure and heart failure that has recently become worse. This medicine interacts with certain other medicines used to treat high blood pressure, fungal infections, and HIV. Do not take it if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Ibada 5 Tablet is used to help reduce the frequency and severity of chest pain in people with angina. It lowers the heart rate and decreases the heart’s oxygen demand, making physical activity more comfortable and improving quality of life.
In chronic heart failure, Ibada 5 Tablet helps the heart pump more efficiently by slowing the heartbeat. This can lead to fewer symptoms like fatigue and breathlessness, and may reduce the risk of hospitalizations.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush or break it. Ibada 5 Tablet is to be taken with food.
Ibada 5 Tablet works by slowing down the heart rate. It does this by blocking a specific "pacemaker" current in the heart, which helps the heart beat more slowly and efficiently. This reduces the heart's workload and improves blood flow, making it easier for the heart to pump oxygen-rich blood to the body. It is often used to treat conditions where the heart beats too fast, like certain types of heart failure or angina.
