This medication is used for patients who need to manage both hypertension and hypercholesterolemia simultaneously. Amlodipine and valsartan help effectively lower blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension who find it difficult to control blood pressure with monotherapy. Rosuvastatin is used as an adjunct for patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and dyslipidemia who are not controlled by diet and exercise. It also slows the progression of atherosclerosis and reduces risks associated with cardiovascular diseases, stroke, myocardial infarction, and arterial revascularization procedures. Therefore, this combination medication is used to improve cardiovascular health by managing both blood pressure and blood lipid levels.
