Amlogard 2.5 contains Amlodipine Besilate, a calcium channel blocker (CCB) used primarily to treat hypertension and angina pectoris. By relaxing blood vessel smooth muscles, it helps lower blood pressure and reduce the heart’s workload, thus preventing complications related to high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. Amlogard 2.5 is commonly used as a first-line treatment for managing high blood pressure and as a complementary treatment for angina, improving heart health over time.
Lifestyle-related Diseases > Hypertension
Amlodipine Besilate is widely used as a first-line treatment for hypertension. It works by blocking calcium channels in blood vessel walls, resulting in vasodilation and a reduction in blood pressure. This helps prevent the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage due to high blood pressure.
Amlodipine Besilate works by inhibiting the influx of calcium into smooth muscle cells of blood vessels, leading to relaxation and dilation of the blood vessels. This results in a significant reduction in blood pressure and a decrease in the heart's workload. Additionally, it has been shown to improve blood flow in patients with coronary artery disease and reduce chest pain in angina pectoris.
