Amper 10/4mg Tablet

Amper 10/4mg Tablet contains Perindopril + Amlodipine 10/4mg, a two-in-one blood pressure medicine. Made by Next Pharmaceutical, it is prescribed for high blood pressure and stable coronary disease. Pack size: 10 tablets.

Uses of Amper 10/4mg Tablet

Amper 10/4mg Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure and stable coronary artery disease in adults whose condition is already controlled by perindopril and amlodipine taken separately. Combining both medicines in one tablet means fewer tablets to take. By keeping blood pressure under control, it helps lower the long-term risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney damage.

How Amper 10/4mg Tablet works

Perindopril is an ACE inhibitor that reduces angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the muscle in artery walls. Working in two different ways, the pair widen the blood vessels more effectively, lowering blood pressure and easing the workload of the heart.
