By simultaneously preventing peripheral calcium influx into vascular smooth muscle and blocking systemic vasoconstrictor pathways, it delivers comprehensive vasodilation to safely normalize elevated blood pressure profiles.
Purpose
Combines Amlodipine and Valsartan to systematically relax peripheral arterial walls and lower total vascular resistance.
Ingredients
Amlodipine (as Besylate) 10mg, Valsartan 160mg

Regular monitoring of serum potassium levels and baseline kidney function tests (LFTs/RFTs) is highly recommended. Exercise caution when standing up quickly from a seated position to avoid sudden orthostatic dizziness or fainting.
