Product Form: Tablets
Pack Size: 30's
Manufactured By: Wilson's Pharmaceuticals
Used For:
- Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker used to relax blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood and helping to lower blood pressure.
- Angina (Chest Pain): Used to prevent angina attacks by improving blood flow to the heart. It does not treat chest pain once it begins but helps reduce the frequency of attacks.

- Common Side Effects: Swelling of the ankles or feet (edema), dizziness, lightheadedness, flushing, and fatigue.
- Less Common: Palpitations, stomach pain, and nausea.
- Serious Side Effects: Although rare, it may cause irregular heartbeat, chest pain, or severe dizziness.
Precautions:
- Heart and Liver Issues: People with certain heart conditions (e.g., heart failure) or liver problems should consult a doctor, as amlodipine may need dosage adjustment or close monitoring.
- Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Generally considered safe, but it is advised to consult a healthcare provider.
- Avoid Grapefruit Products: Grapefruit can increase the amount of amlodipine in the blood, potentially increasing the risk of side effects.
- Dizziness Alert: Since it can cause dizziness, it’s best to avoid activities requiring full alertness (e.g., driving) until you know how it affects you.
