What are Amlopres Tablets Used For?

Amlopres tablets, manufactured by Cipla, are typically used as oral therapy for the treatment of disorders such as hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (a type of chest pain). Amlodipine Besylate tablets belong to class of medications known as calcium channel blockers which ease the flow of blood through the blood vessels. Amlodipine Besylate pills help to lower the blood pressure levels thereby preventing the development of other medical conditions such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
Amlodipine Besylate tablets also help in the prevention of a type of chest pain called angina which develops due to the lack of oxygen supply to the heart muscles. This oxygen deficiency may arise due to different conditions such as coronary artery blockage, spasm, and exertion.
Amlodipine tablets should not be administered for the treatment of angina attacks. Rather, they are used to prevent or decrease the frequency of angina attacks and also increase your stamina for exercise. Angina attacks can be treated with other medications such as sublingual nitroglycerin.

Amlopres Mechanism of Action – How Does Amlodipine Besylate Work?

The medical disorder of high blood pressure develops when the blood exerts excessive pressure against the blood vessels.
Angina is another painful condition that occurs when there is a lack of blood supply to the heart. Amlodipine Besylate pills belong to class of medications known as calcium channel blockers. Amlodipine Besylate present in Amlopres tablets, obstructs the passage of calcium into the smooth muscles located along the lining of the arteries in the heart and other parts of the body. Calcium is a mineral which is essential for the contraction of muscles. So, the inhibition of calcium transport will result in the relaxation of the smooth muscles of the arteries. There is an enhanced blood flow in the body due to the relaxation of the arteries in the heart and other parts of the body.
Amlodipine Besylate tablets prevent the occurrence of angina by its relaxing action on the coronary arteries. Through its relaxation mechanism on the arteries present in the other parts of the body, Amlodipine Besylate tablets helps to lower the blood pressure, thereby reducing the heart’s burden of pumping fresh blood to the different parts of the body.
By minimizing the heart’s burden, Amlodipine Besylate tablets decrease the oxygen demand of heart muscles, which further helps to prevent the development of angina in patients suffering from coronary artery disease.
