ANGICAM-LT TAB

Distributor inventory | 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.

Dizziness, headache, ankle/foot swelling (edema), flushing, fatigue, palpitations, low blood pressure, nausea

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.

Potassium supplements/potassium-sparing diuretics (risk of hyperkalemia), ACE inhibitors or aliskiren (increased kidney risk; avoid in diabetes with aliskiren), NSAIDs (reduced antihypertensive effect and kidney risk), lithium (increased lithium levels/toxicity), other antihypertensives (additive BP lowering), grapefruit juice (may increase amlodipine levels in some people), strong CYP3A4 inhibitors/inducers (may alter amlodipine effect)

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from moisture and light. Keep out of reach of children.
