Amlopres-AT Tablet

Product Introduction

Amlopres-AT Tablet is a medication that combines two active ingredients: Amlodipine and Atenolol. Amlodipine belongs to the class of calcium channel blockers, while Atenolol is a beta-blocker. This combination is used primarily to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (chest pain).

Amlopres-AT Tablet is available in the form of oral tablets, typically in strengths that combine different doses of Amlodipine and Atenolol, such as 5/25 mg or 10/50 mg. It works by relaxing blood vessels and reducing the heart’s workload, thereby improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure.
