Starting Right With AZOR

You may have experience with taking a daily medicine. And like most people, you want to see results from your medicine. That’s why it’s important to take AZOR exactly as your doctor prescribes. It’s also important to keep taking AZOR even after you start seeing results.

Getting the most from AZOR

AZOR works best when you take it correctly from the beginning of treatment. So be sure to take AZOR:

  • Once a day, every day
  • With or without food
  • As prescribed by your doctor
Important fact

Refill your prescription before you run out

Make sure you don’t run out of pills—even for 1 day. Also, don’t cut pills in half or skip days to make your pills last longer. If you do this, you aren’t taking the right amount of medicine for the results you want.

Do not stop taking AZOR without talking with your doctor

Even if you feel fine, do not cut back or stop taking AZOR without first talking with your doctor. Also, do not cut back or stop taking AZOR after your blood pressure numbers go toward your goal. To keep your blood pressure under control, it is important to continue taking AZOR every day, as your doctor prescribes.

Tips for remembering your medicine

Missing your medicine may cause your blood pressure to rise. So remembering to take your medicine every day is important. Try these tips to help you stay on track:

  • Take your medicine when you do other daily activities, like brushing your teeth
  • Put a sticky note on your bathroom mirror or refrigerator
  • Use a weekly pillbox
  • Set up daily alerts on your computer or set the alarm on your cell phone
  • Carry some pills with you in case you need to take your medicine when you’re away from home
