Uses Of Atenolol 50 mg + Amlodipine 5 mg Tablets
This combination of Atenolo 50mg + Amlodipine 5mg Tablets is prescribed to reduce blood pressure. It is part of a group of drugs called Anti-Hypertensive, which are used to treat hypertension. High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a long-term health condition where the blood pressure in the arteries gets too high. Over time, this damages the blood vessels, leading to heart diseases, strokes, kidney problems, and other health issues.
This supplement is made up of two components: Alamodipine (a calcium channel blocker), which helps to reduce the pressure on the heart, allowing the heart to pump blood through different areas of the body more efficiently. Beta-blockers, which block the release of stress hormones such as adrenaline, epinephrine, and adrenaline, help to reduce the heart rate. When both components of the medication are combined, the composition of the supplement helps to lower blood pressure. Therefore, it is recommended to avoid smoking, as it increases the risk of developing a heart attack or stroke while having the treatment with this medication.
