FAQs
Q. Which class does Irbepex Tablet belong to?
Irbepex Tablet belongs to a class of medicines called angiotensin II receptor antagonists (AIIRAs). Angiotensin II is a substance that occurs naturally in the body. It tightens the blood vessels, which in turn increases the blood pressure. Irbepex Tablet blocks this effect so that the blood vessels relax, which helps lower your blood pressure.
Q. How should I take Irbepex Tablet?
You should take Irbepex 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 Irbepex Tablet?
If you have missed a dose of Irbepex 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. How long does Irbepex Tablet take to start working?
Irbepex Tablet may take about 2 weeks to show a visible reduction in blood pressure. Full benefits of Irbepex Tablet may take a little longer, about 4 weeks.

Q. Is Irbepex Tablet better than telmisartan?
Both Irbepex Tablet and telmisartan are blood pressure-lowering medicines. Irbepex Tablet is a relatively new medicine. It is as effective as telmisartan in lowering blood pressure. It can be safely used in patients as it has fewer side effects.
Q. Can I stop Irbepex Tablet on my own?

Exercise regularly and take a balanced diet that includes whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables, and fat-free products. Consult your doctor if you need any further guidance to get the maximum benefit of Irbepex Tablet and to keep yourself healthy.
