Amlong (Amlodipine) 5mg Elbe

Amlodipine 5mg is a once-daily tablet and the standard first-line dose for treating high blood pressure (hypertension) and chest pain (angina). It gently relaxes and widens your blood vessels throughout the day, making it easier for your heart to pump blood, lowering your blood pressure, and reducing your risk of serious complications like stroke and heart attack.

Active ingredient : Amlodipine besylate

Strength : 5mg

Form : Film-coated tablet

Requires prescription : Yes

What is amlodipine 5mg used for?

High blood pressure (hypertension)

The 5mg dose is where most doctors start treatment. It steadily lowers blood pressure over 24 hours, protecting your heart, brain, and kidneys from long-term damage.

Angina (chest pain)

Helps prevent chest pain episodes by improving blood flow to the heart, so you can go about daily activities more comfortably.

Coronary artery disease (CAD)

Reduces the risk of angina-related hospital visits and procedures in patients with known coronary artery disease.

How does it work?

Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker. In simple terms, it stops calcium from entering the walls of your blood vessels and heart. When calcium is blocked, the vessels relax and widen — blood flows through more easily, your heart works less hard, and your blood pressure falls. The 5mg dose is designed to do this gradually and consistently, giving you smooth, steady control around the clock with a single daily tablet.
