Amodip Plus 5mg+12.5mg Tablets

Amodip Plus 5mg+12.5mg Tablets, made by Mass Pharma Ltd, is a combination of a calcium channel blocker and a thiazide diuretic. Its active ingredient is Amlodipine + Hydrochlorothiazide, and it is used for high blood pressure. Pack size: 20 tablets.

Uses of Amodip Plus 5mg+12.5mg Tablets

Amodip Plus 5mg+12.5mg Tablets is used to treat high blood pressure when a single medicine has not controlled it well enough. Lowering blood pressure reduces the strain on the heart and blood vessels and helps protect against stroke, heart attack and kidney damage. Most people with high blood pressure feel no symptoms, so regular use is important even when you feel fine.

How Amodip Plus 5mg+12.5mg Tablets works

Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes and widens the arteries, making it easier for blood to flow. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that helps the kidneys pass extra salt and water. Combining the two lowers blood pressure in two complementary ways.
