Valday 5/80mg Tablet

Valday 5/80mg Tablet, made by Dynatis Pharma, is a combination of a calcium channel blocker and an angiotensin II receptor blocker. Its active ingredient is Amlodipine + Valsartan 5/80mg, and it is used for high blood pressure (hypertension). Pack size: 14 tablets.

Uses of Valday 5/80mg Tablet

Valday 5/80mg Tablet is used to lower high blood pressure in adults whose blood pressure is not well controlled with one medicine alone, or who already take amlodipine and valsartan separately. Keeping blood pressure under control reduces the long-term risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure and kidney damage. It is a long-term treatment and usually needs to be taken even when you feel well.

How Valday 5/80mg Tablet works

Amlodipine relaxes and widens the blood vessels by blocking calcium from entering the muscle cells in their walls. Valsartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels and makes the body hold on to salt and water. Together they lower blood pressure more than either medicine alone.

Possible side effects

Valday 5/80mg Tablet is generally well tolerated. Side effects that some people notice, especially in the first few weeks, include:

• Swelling of the ankles or feet
• Dizziness, particularly when standing up
• Headache

Get medical help straight away if you develop swelling of the face, lips or tongue, difficulty breathing, fainting, chest pain, or a marked drop in how much urine you pass.
