Amlodipine

Uses

Amlodipine is used in the treatment of angina (heart-related chest pain), hypertension (high blood pressure), arrhythmia, hypertensive emergencies, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and anal fissures.

How it Works

How Amlodipine works Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker. In cases of high blood pressure, it helps normalize blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels, which reduces pressure on them and improves blood flow throughout the body. The increased blood flow further relaxes the heart muscles by decreasing the workload on the heart. Additionally, it enhances oxygen delivery in the body, thereby preventing heart-related chest pain.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Amlodipine include headache, nausea, abdominal pain, flushing (a sense of warmth in the face, ears, neck, and trunk), dizziness, palpitations, edema (swelling), muscle cramps, visual disturbances, shortness of breath, changes in bowel habits, and weakness.

Expert Advice

  • You have been prescribed Amlodipine to improve your blood pressure and/or to reduce the frequency and severity of angina attacks.
  • Lowering blood pressure decreases the risk of future heart attacks and strokes.
  • Take Amlodipine at the same time every day to help you remember your dose.
  • A sudden drop in blood pressure may occur, especially when you first start taking Amlodipine.
  • To minimize the risk of feeling dizzy or fainting, rise slowly after sitting or lying down.
  • Amlodipine may cause swelling in the ankles or feet.
  • To alleviate swelling, elevate your legs while sitting.
  • Consult your doctor if the swelling does not resolve.
  • Dizziness may occur; do not drive or engage in activities requiring mental focus until you understand how Amlodipine affects you.
  • Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
