Improvement in blood pressure control for essential hypertension
This will explain the situation where a patient's essential hypertension is not sufficiently controlled by monotherapy with amlodipine or valsartan. In such cases, combining the two medications can lower blood pressure more effectively. Amlodipine works by widening blood vessels to improve blood flow, while valsartan counteracts substances that raise blood pressure, thereby lowering it. When monotherapy is ineffective, combination therapy provides better results in blood pressure control. Therefore, this medication is used to effectively control blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension.
The recommended dose of this medication is one 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).
The safety and efficacy of this medication in pediatric patients under 18 years of age have not been established, so administration is not recommended.
