S-Amlong 2.5mg Tablet

Description

Main Uses 
S-Amlong 2.5mg Tablet is mainly used to:

• Control high blood pressure (hypertension)

• Prevent chest pain (angina)

• Reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke

It helps improve blood flow, reduces pressure on the heart, and keeps your heart and arteries healthy.

---

How It Works:

• S-Amlodipine is the active, more effective form of Amlodipine (called the S-enantiomer).

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

• This helps lower blood pressure, reduce chest pain, and improve oxygen supply to the heart — often with fewer side effects than standard amlodipine.

---

Dosage:

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

• The 2.5mg dose is often prescribed as a starting dose or for mild blood pressure control.

• Continue taking it regularly, even if you feel fine — stopping suddenly can cause a rapid 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.

• Take it regularly as prescribed by your doctor for best results.
