What Amlodipine 10mg is used for

Amlodipine is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and to prevent chest pain (angina) by relaxing and widening blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood.

How to take it / Dosage

Usually taken once daily, at the same time each day, as prescribed by your doctor - with or without food. It's a long-term, chronic-condition medicine; do not stop taking it suddenly without speaking to your doctor, even if you feel well, as blood pressure medicines control the condition rather than cure it.

Active ingredient

Amlodipine 10mg (Calcium channel blocker).

Side effects

Common side effects include ankle or leg swelling, flushing, headache, and dizziness, particularly when starting treatment or increasing the dose.

Warnings & who should not take it

Tell your doctor if you have severe liver disease or a history of heart failure. Avoid grapefruit juice, which can increase levels of the drug in your body. Stand up slowly from sitting or lying down if you feel dizzy.
