About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Genericart Amlodipine Besylate+Metoprolol Succinate 5mg/25mg Tablet ER is a combination antihypertensive medication formulated to manage hypertension and angina pectoris. Each extended-release tablet contains 5 mg of amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker that inhibits calcium ion influx into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle, promoting vasodilation and reducing peripheral vascular resistance. The formulation also includes 23.75 mg of metoprolol succinate, a selective beta-1 adrenergic receptor blocker that decreases heart rate, myocardial contractility, and cardiac output, thereby lowering blood pressure and myocardial oxygen demand. This combination provides complementary mechanisms of action, enhancing blood pressure control and reducing cardiovascular risk. The extended-release formulation ensures a steady plasma concentration, improving patient compliance through once-daily dosing. Genericart Amlodipine Besylate+Metoprolol Succinate is indicated for the treatment of essential hypertension, stable angina, and other cardiovascular conditions where dual blockade is beneficial. Caution is advised in patients with bradycardia, heart block, or severe hepatic impairment. Common adverse effects may include dizziness, fatigue, and peripheral edema. This medication should be used under medical supervision with regular monitoring of blood pressure, heart rate, and clinical response to optimize therapeutic outcomes.
