Detailed Information

Introduction

Amlodac 2.5mg Tablet contains amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and a rare type of chest pain called Prinzmetal's angina or variant angina. This medication works by relaxing and widening your blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily through your body. By improving blood circulation and reducing strain on your heart, Amlodac helps lower blood pressure and prevent chest pain episodes.

Amlodac 2.5mg is suitable for adults and children aged 6 years and above. For children and adolescents (ages 6-17), this medicine is used specifically for treating high blood pressure. Your doctor will determine the right dose based on your age, weight, and medical condition. Always take this medication exactly as prescribed and do not stop taking it without consulting your healthcare provider.

Key points

  • Treats high blood pressure and Prinzmetal's angina effectively
  • Safe for children aged 6 years and above
  • Works by relaxing blood vessels to improve blood flow

Therapeutic Uses

  • Reduces high blood pressure (hypertension)
  • Prevents and manages Prinzmetal's angina (variant angina) chest pain

How it Works

Amlodac 2.5mg Tablet works by blocking calcium channels in the walls of blood vessels and the heart. This action relaxes and widens your blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow through them. By improving blood circulation, the medicine lowers your blood pressure and reduces the workload on your heart. In angina patients, it expands the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle, preventing chest pain and improving overall heart function.

How to Take

Instructions

  • Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water
  • Do not crush, chew, or open the tablet
  • Take at the same time each day for best results
  • Continue taking even if you feel well, as blood pressure control requires ongoing treatment
