Improvement of blood pressure control in essential hypertension
Essential hypertension may require additional treatment when blood pressure control is insufficient with monotherapy of amlodipine or valsartan. In such cases, combining the two medications or other methods helps manage blood pressure more effectively to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Properly controlling hypertension can prevent complications such as heart attacks or strokes. Therefore, it is used in the treatment of essential hypertension.
