Introduction to Planep 25mg Tablet 15s

This medication contains Eplerenone. Eplerenone is a potassium-sparing diuretic (also known as an aldosterone antagonist) used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and heart failure. It helps to reduce the amount of salt and water in the body while maintaining potassium levels, thus lowering blood pressure and decreasing the risk of strokes and heart attacks.

 

How Planep 25mg Tablet 15s works

Eplerenone blocks the action of aldosterone, a hormone that causes the kidneys to retain sodium and water. By inhibiting aldosterone, Eplerenone helps to remove excess salt and water from the body while retaining potassium, which helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the strain on the heart.

FAQ's on Planep 25mg Tablet 15s

Does Planep cause erectile dysfunction?

No, Planep does not cause erectile dysfunction. Planep does not have any effect on fertility, in both males and females.

Does Planep have any effect on the blood sugar levels?

Although it is not very common, but Planep may increase your blood sugar levels. Therefore, it is important that you keep a regular check on your blood sugar levels if you are a diabetic. The use of Planep should be avoided in patients who have type 2 diabetes along with some kidney problem in which the patient loses protein (albumin) in very small quantities in urine.

My blood pressure is now controlled, still the doctor has asked me to continue the treatment. Can I stop Planep?

No, you should not stop Planep. If your doctor has advised you to continue treatment, keep taking it. Planep does not cure blood pressure, but keeps the blood pressure in control. Therefore, keep taking the medicine even if your blood pressure is controlled. Stopping it may make your condition worse and you may have unwanted side effects.

I had been using Losartan for quite some time and was tolerating it well. Now my doctor has prescribed me Planep along with Hydrochlorothiazide. I want to know why he just could not add Planep with Losartan?

It could be possible that Losartan was not able to control your blood pressure adequately. Therefore, your doctor may have suggested an alternative medicine for blood pressure control (Planep), but Eplerenone when taken with Losartan can enhance the chances of raised potassium levels which could be harmful for you. To prevent this rise in potassium levels, the combination of Planep with hydrochlorothiazide may have been prescribed.

How long does Planep take to work?

Planep controls high blood pressure but does not cure it. You may not see any improvement because high blood pressure does not have any symptoms. But, if you get your blood pressure checked, you may notice a change within 2 weeks of starting Planep. However, the medicine may take 4 weeks or longer to show its maximum benefits.

What does Planep do? Is it a beta blocker or a diuretic?

Planep is a potassium-sparing diuretic. It is prescribed with other medicines to control increased blood pressure and to treat heart failure in patients who have had a heart attack. It is not a beta blocker but mineralocorticoid receptor blocker.

Planep is a potassium-sparing diuretic. Does this mean that I will have more potassium in my body? Will it be beneficial for me?

Potassium-sparing diuretic are those medicines which increase the urination without causing any loss in potassium levels. Planep allows sodium loss by body in exchange for potassium which is retained. It may result in an increase in the levels of potassium. Therefore, your doctor may monitor your potassium levels continuously. You may need to get it measured before starting Planep, within the first week and one month after the start of treatment or after a change in dose. Potassium levels above normal range are not good for you or anyone.

Is there anything I need to be careful about if I am taking aspirin and have now started Planep?

Aspirin may interfere with the working of Planep due to which your blood pressure may not get adequately controlled. Aspirin and Planep may increase the chances of rise in potassium levels in patients with kidney problems. Therefore, if both are to be used together, keep monitoring your blood pressure and potassium levels.
