What is a generic medication?
Generic medications are significantly discounted copies of brand name medication that have the same active ingredients, intended use, dosage, side effects, effects, and route of administration as the original brand name medication. In other words, generic medications have the same pharmacological effects as their brand-name counterparts. Over half of all prescribed medications are for generic medications.

Aldomet Overview
Aldomet is used alone or with other medications to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Methyldopa works by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more easily.
How to Use Aldomet
Take Aldomet by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually 2 to 4 times daily. Start Aldomet or any new dose increase in the evening to decrease the risk of side effects. Also, if the doses of Aldomet are not equal, take the larger dose at bedtime. The Dosage of Aldomet is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Use Aldomet regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same times each day. Keep taking Aldomet even if you feel well. Most people with high blood pressure do not feel sick. When used for a long time, Aldomet may not work as well and may require different dosing or an additional medication. Talk with your doctor if Aldomet stops working well (such as your blood pressure readings remain high or increase).
