(Hypertension, Angina) Reduction of cardiovascular risk and improvement of dyslipidemia
This medication is used only for patients who require the combination of two drugs, Amlodipine (Escitalopram) and Atorvastatin. Amlodipine helps alleviate myocardial ischemia due to hypertension and stable or variant angina and reduces the risk of hospitalization for angina and the need for vascular interventions in patients with coronary heart disease. Atorvastatin reduces the risks of cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction, stroke, and angina, and is used as an adjunct to diet in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia and dyslipidemia. Furthermore, it is effective in preventing cardiovascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes and treating homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. Therefore, this medication is used for cardiovascular disease management and improvement of dyslipidemia.
For Amlodipine (Escitalopram), the recommended initial dosage is 5 (2.5) mg orally once daily, which can be increased to a maximum of 10 (5) mg as per the patient's response. Atorvastatin is recommended at an initial dosage of 10 mg once daily, and if further LDL cholesterol reduction is needed, it can be started at 20 mg or 40 mg once daily. Atorvastatin can be dosed from 10 mg to 80 mg once daily.
