Amlopres AT 5 +50mg

Product Overview
Amlopres-AT 5 mg/50 mg Tablet is a prescription combination medication used for the treatment and management of high blood pressure (hypertension), angina (chest pain), and cardiovascular disorders. It combines two proven antihypertensive medicines that work together to control blood pressure, improve blood circulation, and reduce the workload on the heart. Regular use helps lower the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other complications associated with uncontrolled hypertension.

Active Ingredients

• Amlodipine 5 mg
• Atenolol 50 mg

Amlodipine is a Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB), while Atenolol is a Beta-Blocker. Together, they provide comprehensive blood pressure control and cardiovascular protection.

How It Works

Amlodipine relaxes and widens blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily throughout the body.

Atenolol works by slowing the heart rate and reducing the force with which the heart pumps blood, thereby decreasing blood pressure and reducing the heart’s oxygen demand.

The combination helps improve cardiovascular function and provides effective long-term blood pressure management.
