What is Amlozaar Tab used for?

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure)
including patients not adequately controlled on single therapy; helps reduce risk of cardiovascular events associated with hypertension.

How Amlozaar Tab Works

Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels by reducing calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that blocks AT1 receptors, leading to vasodilation and reduced aldosterone effects; together they lower blood pressure effectively.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
