Perindopril Erbumine
Perindopril Erbumine is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used primarily to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), heart failure, and to prevent heart attacks and strokes. By relaxing blood vessels, it helps the heart pump blood more efficiently, reducing strain on the heart and improving blood flow. It is often prescribed for patients with cardiovascular conditions or those at risk of developing them. Perindopril Erbumine can also help preserve kidney function in people with diabetes or other health conditions. It is typically taken once a day under a doctor's supervision.
