What this medicine is for
Pharmacologically, Perindopril relates to the category “ACE inhibitor (antihypertensive)”. This medicine relaxes the vessels and lowers blood pressure by acting on the renin-angiotensin system; it also protects the heart and the kidneys.
In the case of Perindopril, this means: Treats high blood pressure and heart failure. It is most often a maintenance treatment, taken at regular times over long periods; its benefit is judged over time, not by how you feel on the day.

Do you need a supplement? No.
Pour Périndopril, nous ne proposons aucun complément. Aucune supplémentation nutritionnelle n'a de justification sérieuse à mettre en face de ce traitement, et nous préférons l'écrire plutôt que d'inventer un besoin. Notre gamme se limite à cinq classes de médicaments du quotidien pour lesquelles un apport ciblé a un sens ; en dehors, nous ne vendons rien pour vendre, c'est ce qui donne du poids à nos cinq références.
