Product Description
Amlokind-AT Tablet is a combination medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (chest pain). It is typically prescribed when a single medicine does not adequately control blood pressure. By lowering elevated blood pressure, this medicine helps reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes.
You can take Amlokind-AT Tablet with or without food, but it should be taken at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your body. It is important to continue taking the medication even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms. Stopping the medicine abruptly may lead to worsening of the condition. For best results, combine the treatment with lifestyle changes such as regular physical activity, a balanced diet, and weight management as advised by your doctor.
Common side effects may include headache, nausea, slow heart rate, and dizziness. Due to the possibility of dizziness, it is recommended to avoid driving or performing tasks that require mental alertness until you understand how the medicine affects you. Amlokind-AT may also increase potassium levels in the blood, so it is advisable to avoid potassium-rich foods and supplements unless directed by your doctor. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and electrolyte levels may be required during treatment.
Before beginning this medication, inform your doctor if you have any history of liver or kidney disease. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before starting the treatment. Additionally, make sure to inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking, especially those prescribed for heart conditions or blood pressure, to avoid potential drug interactions.
