Quick tips

  • Lifepill 3 Capsule ER lowers your blood pressure and makes it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body.
  • It may cause dizziness. If this happens to you, get up slowly when rising from a sitting or lying position. You can also prefer taking it at bedtime to avoid dizziness throughout the day.
