FAQ's on MONOPARK 40MG TABLET
What if I forget to take a dose of Monopark?
You can take the forgotten dose of Monopark if you remember it within 12 hours. However, if you remember it after 12 hours of the scheduled time, then skip the missed dose and continue with the next dose.
Does Monopark lower BP?
Yes, Monopark can cause a fall in blood pressure. This medicine widens the blood vessels and decreases the resistance in them, causing a fall in blood pressure. This fall in blood pressure may in turn decrease the heartbeat which can lead to angina. This medicine should be avoided in people who already have low blood pressure. Discuss with your doctor if you have any concerns.
Can I take sildenafil while taking Monopark?
No, you should not take sildenafil along with Monopark. Both these medicines lower blood pressure and belong to the same class. Taking these two medicines together may cause severe decrease in blood pressure, fainting and even a heart attack. Along with this, also avoid taking other medicines belonging to similar class such as vardenafil and tadalafil.
Can I stop taking Monopark after sometime?
No, do not stop taking this medicine without talking to your doctor. Stopping it suddenly may increase your chances of having anginal attack. If you have any concerns regarding Monopark consult your doctor.
Does Monopark affect heart rate?
Yes, Monopark may affect the heart rate. Monopark causes a decrease in the blood pressure. This decrease in blood pressure further causes a decrease in the heart rate (bradycardia). In some cases, it may also cause an increase in the heart rate (tachycardia). Consult your doctor in case you do not feel well after taking this medicine or if you notice a change in your heart rate.
What are the symptoms of an overdose of Monopark?
Taking more than the recommended dose of Monopark may cause throbbing headache, reddening of the skin, chills along with sweating, nausea, vomiting and a fast heartbeat. Seek emergency help and consult your doctor immediately if you take more than the recommended dose of this medicine.
Can Monopark be taken at night?
Depending upon the dose, your doctor may recommend you to take this medicine once or twice daily. When a single dose is recommended, then it is preferred to be taken in the morning. If taking it twice a day, maintain a gap of 7 hours between the two doses. This helps decrease the chances of Monopark becoming ineffective (tolerance) after sometime.
