Headache
Diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting
Cough, flu-like symptoms

Increased potassium and creatinine levels: These are substances in your blood. High levels can indicate problems with your kidneys.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Epnone 25 Tablet. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Epnone 25 Tablet contains eplerenone (25 mg) and acts on the body as follows:

Mineralocorticoid Receptor Blockage: Eplerenone selectively blocks the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in your body. This receptor is usually activated by the hormone aldosterone.
Control of Blood Volume and Pressure: By blocking MR, eplerenone inhibits the effects of aldosterone on the kidneys. Normally, aldosterone promotes the retention of sodium and fluid whilst increasing the excretion of potassium. Blocking these effects leads to a reduction in blood volume and pressure.
Protective Effects on the Heart: In patients with heart failure, aldosterone can cause harmful changes to the cardiovascular system. By blocking aldosterone, eplerenone helps protect the heart from these changes.
