Product Description for Equivalent to Coversyl 2mg (Perindopril)
Equivalent to Coversyl 2mg, Perindopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used primarily to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. This medication works by relaxing blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and reducing the workload on the heart.
