Composition

Amlodipine (5 Mg) + Lisinopril (5 Mg)

Amlace Tablet 10 is primarily used to manage hypertension (high blood pressure). It belongs to a category of medicines known as combination antihypertensive agents.

In addition to its main use, this medicine is recommended when blood pressure is not sufficiently controlled by either amlodipine or lisinopril alone. By using two ingredients that tackle high blood pressure in different ways, this medicine helps more patients reach their blood pressure targets.

You should take this medication orally as advised by your doctor. Always inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions and any current medications before starting this medicine. If you notice any side effects, notify your doctor promptly. For the best results, it is vital to continue taking the medicine for the full duration prescribed by your doctor.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Amlace Tablet 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Amlace Tablet 10 is a combination medicine, and its effectiveness comes from the combined action of two active ingredients:

Amlodipine (5 mg): This is a type of medication known as a calcium channel blocker. It works by stopping calcium from entering certain cells in your heart and blood vessels. This results in relaxation and widening of your blood vessels, which helps decrease your blood pressure.
Lisinopril (5 mg): Lisinopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. It works by decreasing levels of a chemical in your body called angiotensin II. This chemical narrows your blood vessels and releases another substance that can absorb water and salt in your body. By reducing the amount of angiotensin II, lisinopril allows your blood vessels to relax and widen, and reduces the amount of water absorbed by your body, helping to decrease your blood pressure.

Pregnancy

Amlace Tablet 10 is not recommended during pregnancy due to the risk of harm to the baby. If you're pregnant, or planning a pregnancy, it is crucial to consult your doctor before starting this medicine.

Breastfeeding while taking Amlace Tablet 10 is not advised. It's best to discuss this with your doctor to understand potential risks and benefits.

Allergy
