Description

Main Uses 
AMlong 2.5 Tablet is mainly used to:

By lowering blood pressure, it helps your heart pump more easily and improves blood flow throughout the body.

How It Works:

• Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker.

• It relaxes and widens blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood and reducing strain on the heart.

• This leads to lower blood pressure, better oxygen supply to the heart, and prevention of chest pain episodes.

---

Dosage:

• Usually taken once daily, preferably at the same time each day.

• The dose is decided by your doctor based on your blood pressure readings and condition.

• Do not stop suddenly, as it may cause a sudden rise 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 well, as high blood pressure often has no symptoms.

• Tell your doctor if you have liver problems, heart failure, or low blood pressure.

• Avoid alcohol, as it may enhance dizziness or fainting.

• Be careful while driving or standing up suddenly, as you may feel lightheaded.
