Product Introduction:
Amlovas 2.5mg Tablet is a pharmaceutical product containing Amlodipine as its active ingredient. Amlodipine belongs to the class of medications called calcium channel blockers. It is commonly prescribed for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and certain types of chest pain (angina).
Amlovas 2.5mg Tablet may be prescribed alone or along with other medicines. The dose depends on what you are taking it for and the severity of your condition. You can take it at any time of the day, with or without food, but it is best to take it at about the same time each day. You should take this medicine for as long as it is prescribed for you. Even if you feel well, do not stop this medicine on your own because high blood pressure often has no symptoms. If you stop taking it, your condition may get worse. Keeping yourself active with regular exercise, managing your weight, and eating a healthy diet will also help control your blood pressure.
The most common side effects include headache, fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and sleepiness. Consult your doctor if any of these side effects bother you or do not go away. They may be able to suggest ways to prevent or reduce the side effects.
Before taking it, let your doctor know if you have any liver, heart, or kidney problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking this medicine. You also need to tell your doctor about all the other medicines you are taking, especially those used to treat high blood pressure or heart conditions. You should have your blood pressure checked regularly to make sure that this medicine is working properly.
Benefits:
- Blood Pressure Management: Amlovas 2.5mg Tablet helps to relax the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily.

- Angina Relief: Amlodipine is effective in reducing the frequency and severity of chest pain episodes in individuals with stable angina. By dilating the coronary arteries, it improves blood flow to the heart muscle, thereby relieving anginal symptoms.
