Description:
Amlip 5 Tablet is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent angina (heart-related chest pain). By lowering blood pressure and reducing the heart’s workload, it helps prevent heart attacks and strokes. It may be prescribed alone or in combination with other medications, depending on the severity of the condition. This medicine can be taken at any time of the day, with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time daily. It is essential to continue taking it as prescribed, even if you feel well, as stopping suddenly may worsen your condition. Maintaining an active lifestyle, managing weight, and following a healthy diet can further support blood pressure control.
Common side effects include headache, edema, fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and drowsiness. If these side effects persist or become bothersome, consult your doctor for advice. Some patients have reported lichenoid keratosis (a benign, inflamed skin lesion) while taking Amlip 5 Tablet; if you notice any unusual skin changes, inform your doctor.
Before starting this medication, inform your doctor about any existing liver, heart, or kidney problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use. Additionally, disclose any other medications you are taking, especially those for high blood pressure or heart conditions. Regular blood pressure monitoring is recommended to ensure the medicine is working effectively.
