About Carvefine 6.25 Tablet

Carvefine 6.25 Tablet is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure), moderate to severe heart failure, and angina (heart-related chest pain). Besides this, Carvefine 6.25 Tablet also reduces the risk of heart attack or stroke in adults. High blood pressure is a condition in which the force of blood against the artery walls is very high.
