S-Amlodipine Besylate
Description:
S Numlo 2.5mg Tablet contains S-amlodipine besylate, which is the levo-isomer of amlodipine besylate. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina (heart-related chest pain).
S-amlodipine is considered the pharmacologically active isomer of racemic amlodipine, and it is believed to be responsible for most of the drug’s effects. Using the S-isomer may potentially allow for a lower effective dose with similar efficacy and possibly fewer side effects compared to racemic amlodipine.
S Numlo 2.5mg Tablet works by relaxing the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood and reducing blood pressure. In angina, it helps to improve blood flow to the heart muscle, reducing chest pain. It is usually taken once daily, with or without food. Common side effects are similar to those of racemic amlodipine and may include headache, swelling in the ankles or feet, fatigue, and dizziness. However, the incidence or severity of these side effects might be lower with S-amlodipine in some individuals.
