Amdocal 2.5mg is indicated for:

Mild to moderate essential hypertension
Chronic stable angina

Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It reduces vascular smooth muscle tone by blocking calcium influx, leading to vasodilation and decreased peripheral resistance. It also dilates coronary arteries, improving oxygen delivery in angina patients.

Children (6–17 years): Not generally recommended at this dose
Adjust dose based on clinical response

Administration:

Taken orally once daily
Can be taken with or without food
Try to take at the same time each day
Swallow whole with water

Interaction:

Increased effect when used with CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole)
May enhance the hypotensive effect of other blood pressure medicines
