Amlong MT 50 Tablet PR

Description

Main Uses 
Amlong MT 50 Tablet PR is mainly prescribed to:

• Control high blood pressure (hypertension)

• Prevent chest pain (angina)

• Lower the risk of heart attack and stroke

It helps relax blood vessels, improve blood flow, and reduce the workload on the heart, keeping your heart healthy and functioning efficiently.

---

How It Works:

• Amlodipine – a calcium channel blocker that widens blood vessels, helping blood flow more easily and lowering blood pressure.

• Metoprolol Succinate – a beta-blocker that slows down the heart rate and reduces the force of heart contractions, allowing the heart to work with less strain.

Together, they provide better blood pressure control, help prevent chest discomfort, and protect the heart from long-term complications.
