Inspra is a prescription drug for adults who develop congestive heart failure after a heart attack. Congestive heart failure means the heart is too weak to pump enough blood through the body. Inspra can help these patients survive. It can be used with other heart medicines and can also be taken by adults with high blood pressure. It lowers blood pressure by itself or with other medicines.

How does Inspra work?

Inspra blocks a hormone in the body called aldosterone which, if your levels are too high, may lead to heart failure. By blocking aldosterone and other hormones, Inpsra helps your body and your heart failure condition. It is available in a 25mg or 50mg tablet and is taken once a day.

How does it work?

Serc is used to relieve the symptoms of Meniere’s disease, which is a disorder of the inner ear. The fluid in the ear provides continual feedback to the brain about our body position. Symptoms of Meniere’s disease occur when something disturbs the balance of this fluid, for example, an increase in its pressure. This can cause sensations such as nausea, dizziness, or spinning sensations (vertigo), ringing in the ears (tinnitus), and hearing problems.
Serc helps relieve the symptoms of Meniere’s disease by acting on histamine receptors that are found in the walls of blood vessels in the inner ear. By activating these receptors, a process is started that ultimately reduces the pressure of the fluid that fills the labyrinth in the inner ear.

Who should not use Serc?

This medicine should not be used if you:

• are allergic to one or any of its ingredients
• have a history of peptic ulcers
• have asthma

Serc should be used with caution during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Seek medical advice from your doctor.
