Amlodipine is a medication belonging to a group of drugs called calcium channel blockers. It works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, which allows blood to flow more easily throughout the body. This action reduces the workload on the heart and lowers the overall pressure within the circulatory system. The 10mg strength is the maximum standard daily dose for optimal blood pressure control.
This 28-tablet pack is used for the long-term management of cardiovascular health. It is primarily indicated for:
Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Lowering blood pressure to reduce the risk of life-threatening complications like strokes and heart attacks.
Chronic Stable Angina: Preventing chest pain by improving blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart muscle.
Vasospastic (Prinzmetal's) Angina: Treating chest pain caused by sudden spasms of the coronary arteries.
Amlodipine (10mg): A high-potency daily dose used when lower strengths (like 5mg) are insufficient to reach target blood pressure levels.
Standard Adult Dose: Usually one (1) 10mg tablet once daily.
Consistency: It is best to take your tablet at the same time every day (morning or evening) to maintain steady levels in your bloodstream.
Duration: Amlodipine is a maintenance medication; it must be taken every day, even if you feel perfectly fine.
With or Without Food: You can take Amlodipine with or without a meal.
Swallow Whole: Take the tablet with a glass of water.
Avoid Grapefruit Juice: Do not consume large amounts of grapefruit or grapefruit juice while on this medication, as it can increase the concentration of Amlodipine in your blood and lead to an unsafe drop in blood pressure.
Edema (Swelling): A common side effect is swelling of the ankles or feet. If this becomes uncomfortable, consult our pharmacist.
Dizziness: You may feel dizzy or lightheaded, especially when first starting the medication or when standing up quickly. Move slowly until you know how the medicine affects you.
Liver Health: If you have a history of liver disease, your doctor may need to adjust your dose.
Pregnancy/Nursing: Consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Dental Hygiene: In rare cases, Amlodipine can cause "gingival hyperplasia" (swollen gums). Maintaining excellent oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups is recommended.
Indicated For: Adults diagnosed with hypertension or angina. It is often a preferred choice for patients who require a once-daily treatment that is generally well-tolerated.
Q: Will this cure my high blood pressure?
A: No. Amlodipine controls high blood pressure but does not cure it. If you stop taking the medication, your blood pressure will likely rise again.
Q: Can I take this with my other heart medicines?
A: Amlodipine is often used alongside other blood pressure drugs (like ACE inhibitors). However, always provide our pharmacist with a full list of your medications to check for interactions.
Q: Why are there 28 tablets?
A: This pack provides a 4-week supply, making it easy to sync your refills with monthly medical check-ups.
