Aprocitentan is a type of medicine that blocks endothelin receptors, which is used to treat really tough hypertension. It helps by keeping blood vessels from getting too tight. Doctors usually start people with a 12.5 mg pill, taken every day.
These tablets come in 12.5 mg doses and they come in bottles with 30 tablets in them. It works by stopping the stuff called endothelin, which makes blood vessels constrict and blood pressure rise. It stops the endothelin receptors so blood vessels can relax and that brings down the blood pressure.
You can take it with or without eating, just don’t break, chew, or crush the pill. Some folks might get side effects like a headache, lightheadedness, or a cough, but a doctor can help you handle them. Just keep taking the pill as your doc told you to, and don’t stop it without talking to a healthcare provider first.
