Indications:
SIDOPLUS 50MG is indicated for the treatment of:
Essential hypertension
Chronic stable angina
Post-myocardial infarction patients
Refractory angina pectoris where nitrate therapy has failed
Pharmacology:
This fixed-dose combination contains:
Amlodipine: A dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker that inhibits calcium influx into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle, leading to vasodilation and reduced blood pressure.
Atenolol: A cardioselective beta-blocker that reduces heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure by blocking beta-1 adrenergic receptors.
The combination provides complementary mechanisms to control hypertension and angina.
Dosage:
Adults: One tablet (Amlodipine 5mg + Atenolol 50mg) once daily. If necessary, dosage may be increased to two tablets daily or as advised by the physician.
Elderly: Initiate with one tablet daily; adjust dosage based on clinical response.
Administration:
Take SIDOPLUS 50MG orally with or without food. It is recommended to take the medication at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels.
Interaction:
Disopyramide: Atenolol may reduce the clearance of disopyramide, leading to additive negative inotropic effects.
Ampicillin (≥1g): May reduce plasma levels of Atenolol.
Oral antidiabetics and insulin: Beta-blockers may decrease tissue sensitivity to insulin and inhibit insulin secretion.
Contraindications:
Hypersensitivity to Amlodipine, Atenolol, or any component of the formulation.
Sinus bradycardia
Second or third-degree heart block
Cardiogenic shock
Hypotension
Congestive heart failure
Poor left ventricular function

Pregnancy & Lactation:
Use during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. The combination should not be used by nursing mothers; if necessary, breastfeeding should be discontinued.
Precautions & Warnings:
Use with caution in patients with airway obstruction, renal impairment, or hepatic impairment.
Monitor blood pressure regularly to avoid hypotension.
Gradual withdrawal is recommended to prevent rebound hypertension.
Therapeutic Class:
Combined antihypertensive preparations
