Product Description
Product Name: Norvasc Tablets 10mg
Product Form: Tablets
Pack Size: 30's
Manufactured By: Pfizer
Used For:
- Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Amlodipine is often prescribed to lower blood pressure, which reduces the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems.
- Angina (Chest Pain): It helps manage angina by relaxing the blood vessels, reducing the heart's oxygen demand, and preventing chest pain episodes.
- Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): Amlodipine is also used in patients with CAD to improve blood flow and manage symptoms.
Side Effects:
- Common Side Effects: These include swelling (edema) in the ankles or feet, dizziness, flushing, headache, and fatigue.
- Serious Side Effects: Rarely, it can cause very low blood pressure (hypotension), irregular heartbeat, chest pain, or worsening angina.
Precaution:
- Liver Impairment: Patients with liver issues should use amlodipine with caution, as it is metabolized in the liver, and dose adjustments may be required.
- Heart Conditions: Those with severe heart conditions, such as aortic stenosis, or heart failure should use it cautiously, as it can worsen symptoms in some cases.
- Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Amlodipine should be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding only if clearly needed and prescribed by a healthcare provider, as safety data is limited.
- Alcohol: Limit alcohol consumption, as it can increase the blood-pressure-lowering effect of amlodipine, leading to more pronounced dizziness or drowsiness.
