Introduction About AMLONG 5MG TABLET
AMLONG 5MG TABLET is a medication used primarily for the management of high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina (Prinzmetal’s or variant angina). The active ingredient, Amlodipine , is a calcium channel blocker that helps relax blood vessels, reducing strain on the heart and lowering blood pressure and chest pain.
You can take AMLONG 5MG TABLET at any time of the day, with or without food. For the best results, try to take it around the same time every day. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and take the medication for as long as prescribed, even if you feel fine. Sudden discontinuation may worsen your condition, as high blood pressure often has no visible symptoms.
Complement your therapy with regular physical activity, a healthy diet, and weight management to maintain optimal blood pressure levels.
Before taking AMLONG 5MG TABLET, inform your doctor if you have any liver, heart, or kidney problems, as this may affect your dosage. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using this medicine. Always share details about any other medications you are taking, especially those for blood pressure or heart conditions, as interactions could affect the efficacy of AMLONG 5MG TABLET.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure is essential to ensure the medication is working as intended and to adjust the dosage if needed. The most common side effects of taking AMLONG 5MG TABLET are headache, edema (swelling), fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and drowsiness. If these symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor.

This medicine does not provide immediate relief of chest pain from angina.
