Introduction

MIDORIGHT 5 is a prescription tablet containing Midodrine Hydrochloride 5 mg, used to treat orthostatic hypotension—a condition where blood pressure drops upon standing. It works by tightening blood vessels to improve blood flow and prevent dizziness or fainting. Manufactured by Steris Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., MIDORIGHT 5 ensures reliable blood pressure support with trusted quality.

What is Midodrine Hydrochloride 5 mg?

Midodrine Hydrochloride is a vasopressor and alpha-1 adrenergic agonist prescribed primarily for treating symptomatic orthostatic hypotension (SOH). It is particularly beneficial for patients experiencing a sharp decrease in blood pressure when moving from a sitting or lying position to standing.

MIDORIGHT 5 is manufactured by Steris Healthcare, ensuring pharmaceutical-grade purity and compliance with WHO-GMP standards.

Uses of Midodrine Hydrochloride 5 mg Tablet

MIDORIGHT 5 is indicated for:

  • Orthostatic Hypotension (Low BP on standing)

  • Syncope (Fainting) due to blood pressure instability

  • Autonomic Dysfunction-Related Hypotension

  • Off-label in chronic fatigue or dialysis-induced hypotension (under medical supervision)

How Midodrine Works

Midodrine is a prodrug that converts into its active metabolite, desglymidodrine, in the body. This compound stimulates alpha-1 adrenergic receptors in peripheral blood vessels, leading to vasoconstriction. As a result, it increases blood pressure, particularly during upright posture, preventing symptoms like dizziness and fainting.
