How It Works:

• Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker.

• It relaxes and widens blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and reducing the heart’s workload.

• This results in lower blood pressure, less chest pain, and better oxygen supply to the heart.

---

Dosage:

• Usually taken once daily, at a fixed time each day.

• The dosage depends on the patient’s blood pressure and response to treatment.

• Do not stop or change the dose without consulting your doctor, as it may cause a sudden spike in blood pressure.

---

How to Use:

• Take the tablet by mouth with water, with or without food.

• Swallow it whole — do not crush or chew.

• Continue taking it regularly even if you feel fine; blood pressure control needs consistent treatment.

---

Precautions:

• Inform your doctor if you have liver disease, heart failure, or low blood pressure.

• Avoid alcohol, as it can increase dizziness or drowsiness.

• Stand up slowly from sitting or lying positions to avoid lightheadedness.

• Use with caution during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

• Follow a healthy diet, limit salt intake, and exercise regularly for best results.
