FAQs
Q. Which class does Fimagen 60 Tablet belong to?
Fimagen 60 Tablet belongs to a class of medicines called angiotensin II receptor antagonists (AIIRAs). Angiotensin II is a substance which occurs naturally in the body. It tightens the blood vessels, which in turn increases the blood pressure. Fimagen 60 Tablet blocks this effect so that the blood vessels relax, which helps lower your blood pressure.
Q. How should I take Fimagen 60 Tablet?
You should take Fimagen 60 Tablet exactly as directed by your doctor. It is for oral use and is usually taken once a day. You should take it with plenty of water, with or without food. It is recommended that you take this medicine at the same time every day.
Q. What if I forget to take a dose of Fimagen 60 Tablet?
If you have missed a dose of Fimagen 60 Tablet, take it as soon as you remember it. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, take it in the regular schedule instead of taking the missed dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one as this may increase the chances of developing side effects.

Q. Can I stop Fimagen 60 Tablet on my own?
