Improvement in the control of essential hypertension
Essential hypertension can sometimes be difficult to manage with either amlodipine or valsartan alone. In such cases, using both medications together can manage blood pressure more effectively. Amlodipine works by dilating blood vessels to lower blood pressure, while valsartan prevents blood vessel constriction. The combination of these two drugs can stabilize blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, the combination therapy of amlodipine and valsartan is effectively used for the treatment of essential hypertension.
The recommended dose is 1 tablet once daily, taken with water regardless of meals. It is recommended to take it at the same time every day (e.g., in the morning). For patients with renal impairment, mild to moderate renal impairment does not require dose adjustment, but severe renal impairment and patients on dialysis should not take this medication. Patients with liver impairment: The daily dose of valsartan for patients with mild to moderate liver impairment should not exceed 80mg.
