Amstan 10/160mg Tablets — Amlodipine + Valsartan
Description
Amstan 10/160mg Tablets — Amlodipine + Valsartan
Amstan 10/160mg Tablets are a fixed-dose combination of Amlodipine 10mg (a calcium channel blocker, CCB) and Valsartan 160mg (an angiotensin II receptor blocker, ARB). These two complementary mechanisms work synergistically to lower blood pressure: Amlodipine relaxes vascular smooth muscle by blocking L-type calcium channels, while Valsartan blocks angiotensin II at AT1 receptors, preventing vasoconstriction and aldosterone release. Together they achieve superior blood pressure reduction compared to either agent alone.
Benefits
- Dual-mechanism antihypertensive: CCB + ARB combination for effective blood pressure control
- Reduces risk of cardiovascular events including stroke, heart attack, and heart failure
- Provides 24-hour blood pressure control with once-daily dosing
- ARB component (Valsartan) confers renal protection — beneficial in diabetic hypertension
- Reduces peripheral oedema risk compared to Amlodipine monotherapy (complementary ARB effect)
How to Use
Take one Amstan 10/160mg Tablet daily as directed by your physician, with or without food. Swallow whole with water. Take at the same time each day for consistent blood pressure control. Do not discontinue without medical advice — abrupt cessation may cause blood pressure rebound. Monitor blood pressure regularly and attend scheduled reviews.
