Description
Labetalol 100mg Tablets (56’s) contain Labetalol Hydrochloride, a medication used to manage high blood pressure. It works by blocking both alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors, helping to lower heart rate, relax blood vessels, and reduce overall blood pressure.
Key Uses:

Treatment of mild to severe hypertension
