Amlodipine 2.5mg
SKU GME034Product Introduction
Amlodipine 2.5mg is a calcium-channel blocker used for high blood pressure and certain types of angina or coronary artery disease when prescribed. It relaxes and widens blood vessels, lowering vascular resistance so the heart can pump against less pressure. In angina, improved blood flow and reduced workload can help reduce chest-pain episodes over time. It is not for immediate relief of sudden chest pain.
How to use
Take Amlodipine 2.5mg once daily or as prescribed, at the same time each day. It can be taken with or without food. Keep checking blood pressure as advised. Do not stop on your own because blood pressure or angina control may worsen.
How it works
Amlodipine blocks calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle, relaxing blood vessels and lowering blood pressure. It also reduces the heart's workload and can improve oxygen supply-demand balance in angina.
Common side effects
Possible side effects include ankle swelling, flushing, headache, dizziness, tiredness, sleepiness, nausea, abdominal discomfort, palpitations, and low blood pressure. Seek review for severe swelling, fainting, worsening chest pain, fast or irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, or allergic swelling.
Important information
Use caution in liver disease, severe low blood pressure, significant aortic stenosis, heart failure, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and older age. Grapefruit products and some antibiotics or antifungals may increase amlodipine exposure. Lifestyle measures and regular BP checks remain important.

- High blood pressure

Benefits
