Cabaza Tablet ER
Prescription RequiredProduct introduction
Cabaza Tablet ER is used to treat peripheral vascular disease (poor circulation to the arms and legs) and intermittent claudication (pain on walking or at rest caused by poor circulation to the legs). It works by increasing the blood flow to the arms and legs.
Take Cabaza Tablet ER exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It works best when taken regularly, as it helps improve blood flow over time rather than giving instant relief. Do not skip doses or stop the medicine on your own, even if symptoms start to improve, as this may reduce its benefit. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose, do not double the dose.
Common side effects of Cabaza Tablet ER may include flushing, headache, dizziness, drowsiness, nervousness, tremor, and sleep disturbances such as insomnia. Some people may experience stomach-related discomfort like abdominal pain, bloating, indigestion (dyspepsia), nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. Blurred vision may also occur. These effects are usually mild and settle as the body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if any side effect persists, worsens, or becomes bothersome.
Cabaza Tablet ER should be used with caution in people who have heart disease, low blood pressure, bleeding disorders, or a history of stroke. Inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems, as dose adjustment may be required. It is not recommended for patients with recent bleeding, recent heart attack, or allergy to methylxanthines (such as caffeine or theophylline). Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding should be only if clearly advised by a doctor.
Uses of Cabaza Tablet ER
- Peripheral vascular disease

Benefits of Cabaza Tablet ER
In Peripheral vascular disease
Peripheral vascular disease refers to the condition of disturbed blood circulation in blood vessels. Cabaza Tablet ER prevents blood from clotting inside the veins and arteries. This helps the blood flow freely around your body thereby preventing a heart attack or stroke (or deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism). It helps prevent the formation of blood clots and also prevents the existing ones from growing bigger in size. Make appropriate lifestyle changes (such as eating healthy and staying active) to maximize the effectiveness of this medicine.
In Intermittent claudication
Intermittent claudication refers to muscle pain on mild exertion (ache, cramp, numbness or sense of fatigue), classically in the calf muscle, which occurs during exercise or even walking, and it gets better with a short period of rest. Cabaza Tablet ER helps relieve this pain in the legs that is caused due to disturbed blood supply in the legs. It helps prevent formation of blood clots, improves blood flow and maintains free flowing of blood in your body.
