Myogard 20mg Tablets contain Nifedipine 20mg, a commonly used medication for treating high blood pressure (hypertension). Nifedipine works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, thereby improving blood flow and reducing strain on the heart.
These tablets are specifically designed for patients seeking short-term management of hypertension. They are taken orally, and their dosage should be determined in consultation with a healthcare professional based on individual needs and medical history.
Commonly used to treat:
* Hypertension (high blood pressure)

Important Note: While Myogard 20mg Tablets can be helpful, they are not a substitute for regular lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet and exercise regimen. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting any new medication.
