Precautions:

 Some precautions to consider when taking Aziva 5mg tablets include:

1. Inform your doctor about any other medications, supplements, or herbal remedies you are taking, as they may interact with amlodipine.
2. Take the medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor and do not stop taking it suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this can cause your blood pressure to rise suddenly, which could lead to serious complications.
3. Use caution when driving or operating machinery until you know how Aziva affects you, as it may cause dizziness or drowsiness.

Always follow your doctor's instructions and dosage recommendations when taking Aziva 5mg tablets, and do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
