Amlodipine (2.5 mg), the active ingredient in Amlodac 2.5 Tablet, works on your body as follows:

• Inhibits Calcium Influx: Amlodipine works by blocking the movement of calcium into the smooth muscle cells lining your blood vessels and heart. This action reduces the contraction of these muscles.

• Promotes Vasodilation: By limiting calcium influx, amlodipine allows blood vessels to relax and widen. This process is called vasodilation.

• Reduces Blood Pressure: The vasodilation effect decreases resistance to blood flowing through vessels, effectively lowering your blood pressure.

• Decreases Cardiac Workload: With lower blood pressure, your heart doesn't need to work as hard to pump blood around your body. This reduction in workload helps prevent angina attacks.
