Amlodipress
UBSAAmlodipress contains amlodipine, a long-acting calcium channel blocker that lowers blood pressure by relaxing and widening blood vessels. This improves blood circulation, reduces the workload on the heart, and helps prevent complications associated with hypertension, such as heart attack and stroke. It is also effective in preventing and treating chronic stable angina and vasospastic (Prinzmetal's) angina. Amlodipress is intended for once-daily oral administration and may be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive medications.
Ingredients
Active Ingredient: Amlodipine (as amlodipine besylate) Inactive Ingredients: May include lactose monohydrate, microcrystalline cellulose, calcium hydrogen phosphate, sodium starch glycolate, magnesium stearate, and other excipients (may vary by manufacturer and strength).
Indications
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure). Management of chronic stable angina. Treatment of vasospastic (Prinzmetal's) angina. Helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications associated with uncontrolled hypertension.
