Mint Eplerenone How to Take

Eplerenone belongs to a group of medications called aldosterone antagonists. It is used in combination with other medications to treat heart failure and help prevent worsening heart failure after a Heart Attack, thereby improving the chances of survival.

It is also used along with other medications to treat mild-to-moderate high blood pressure, when other medications are not tolerated or have reduced your blood pressure enough.

Eplerenone works by blocking aldosterone, a substance the body makes that helps control blood pressure. High levels of aldosterone increase blood pressure and may contribute to heart failure. Blocking aldosterone helps prevent heart failure from worsening.
