Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It relaxes and widens blood vessels by reducing calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle, lowering blood pressure and decreasing heart workload, which helps prevent angina.
Directions for Use
Take orally as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow tablet with water; do not stop abruptly without medical advice.
May cause dizziness—use caution while driving. Monitor for ankle swelling, low blood pressure, and worsening chest pain when starting or increasing dose. Use with caution in severe aortic stenosis, heart failure, liver impairment (dose adjustment may be needed), and elderly. Do not stop medicine without consulting your doctor.
Drug Interactions
Other antihypertensives (additive hypotension), simvastatin (limit simvastatin dose when used with amlodipine), strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., clarithromycin, azole antifungals, ritonavir) may increase amlodipine levels, CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenytoin) may reduce effect, grapefruit juice (may increase levels in some patients)
