Asomex 2.5mg Tablets 30’s – Amlodipine for High Blood Pressure & Angina
Asomex 2.5mg Tablets 30’s contain amlodipine besylate (2.5mg), a calcium channel blocker used in the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (chest pain due to reduced blood supply to the heart).
Amlodipine works by relaxing the smooth muscles in blood vessels, allowing them to widen and improve blood flow. This reduces blood pressure, decreases the workload on the heart, and prevents complications such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage.
At the 2.5mg strength, Asomex is often prescribed as a starting dose or for elderly patients who require a lower dose to minimize side effects.
