Improves blood pressure control in essential hypertension through the combination of amlodipine and valsartan
This medication effectively lowers blood pressure in patients with essential hypertension whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with monotherapy with either amlodipine or valsartan. This is because the two drugs act through different mechanisms, enhancing the blood pressure-lowering effect. Therefore, this drug is used to improve blood pressure control in hypertensive patients who do not respond adequately to monotherapy.
The recommended dosage is one tablet once a day, taken with water regardless of meals. It is recommended to take it at the same time daily (e.g., in the morning). 5/80 mg: Administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with monotherapy of amlodipine 5 mg or valsartan 80 mg. 5/160 mg: Administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with monotherapy of amlodipine 5 mg or valsartan 160 mg.
