Description:

Amlodac 2.5 Tablet belongs to the calcium channel blocker class of medicines and is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent angina (heart-related chest pain). By lowering blood pressure and reducing the heart’s workload, it helps prevent heart attacks and strokes. It may be prescribed alone or in combination with other medications, depending on the severity of the condition. You can take it at any time of the day, with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time daily. It is important to continue taking this medicine as prescribed, even if you feel well, as stopping it abruptly may worsen your condition. Lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, weight management, and a healthy diet can also aid in controlling blood pressure.

The most common side effects include headache, edema, fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and somnolence. If any of these side effects persist or become bothersome, consult your doctor. In some cases, patients taking Amlodac 2.5 Tablet have reported lichenoid keratosis, a benign inflamed skin lesion that typically appears brownish or reddish on sun-exposed areas. If you experience this or any unusual symptoms, inform your doctor promptly.
