Amlodipine (as amlodipine besylate) 5 mg + Losartan potassium 50 mg (per tablet)
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), especially when single-drug therapy is not adequate; helps reduce risk of cardiovascular events associated with uncontrolled BP.
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, lowering blood pressure.
Take orally as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow whole with water; do not stop abruptly without medical advice. Regular BP monitoring is recommended.
Common side effects of ANGICAM-LT TAB may include:
Use with caution in kidney disease, liver impairment, heart failure, aortic stenosis, dehydration or low sodium. Monitor blood pressure, kidney function and serum potassium, especially after starting or dose changes. Losartan can harm the unborn baby—avoid in pregnancy. Seek urgent help for facial/lip swelling or breathing difficulty (angioedema) or severe dizziness/fainting.
