Captopril Tablet per card

₦850.00

Captopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), congestive heart failure, and to improve survival after a heart attack.

It works by relaxing blood vessels so blood flows more easily, reducing the heart’s workload.
