Introduction

Amdules AT is a combination medication that combines Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, and Atenolol, a beta-blocker, to effectively manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and angina (chest pain). This synergistic formula helps control your blood pressure, improve heart function, and reduce the risk of complications related to cardiovascular health. Whether you're managing long-term hypertension or recovering from heart conditions, Amdules AT offers an effective and convenient treatment option to help you maintain a healthy heart and circulatory system.

Key Ingredients

1. Amlodipine (5 mg / 10 mg)

   • Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, which helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. It also helps in preventing angina by improving blood flow to the heart muscles.

2. Atenolol (25 mg / 50 mg)

   • Atenolol is a beta-blocker that works by blocking the effects of adrenaline on the heart. This reduces the heart rate and blood pressure, decreasing the heart's demand for oxygen, and making it easier for the heart to pump blood. Atenolol is particularly effective in treating high blood pressure and preventing heart attacks.

Key Benefits

• Reduces High Blood Pressure: The combination of Amlodipine and Atenolol helps to lower high blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems.
• Prevents Angina: This medication helps alleviate chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart, improving overall heart function and reducing the frequency of angina episodes.
• Improves Heart Function: By controlling both blood pressure and heart rate, Amdules AT helps your heart work more efficiently, especially in conditions like hypertension and coronary artery disease.
• Reduces the Risk of Heart Attack: The medication helps reduce the risk of heart attack by controlling high blood pressure and reducing the strain on the heart.
• Convenient Dual Therapy: With both Amlodipine and Atenolol in one tablet, this product simplifies treatment, eliminating the need to take two separate medications.

How Does It Work?

Amlodipine works by blocking the entry of calcium into heart and blood vessel cells, which prevents the contraction of blood vessels and allows them to dilate. This leads to a decrease in blood pressure and a reduction in the heart's workload. Amlodipine also helps improve blood flow to the heart, alleviating symptoms of angina.

Atenolol, on the other hand, works by blocking the beta-receptors in the heart, which decreases the heart rate and the force of the heart’s contractions. This leads to lower blood pressure and reduced oxygen demand for the heart, helping to prevent complications related to hypertension and heart disease.

Together, these two ingredients work synergistically to reduce blood pressure, prevent chest pain, and improve overall heart health.

Directions for Use

• Dosage: The dosage of Amdules AT will be determined by your healthcare provider based on your individual needs and condition.
• Administration: Take the tablet as prescribed, usually once a day, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew or crush the tablet.
• Consistency: It is important to take the medication regularly at the same time each day to maintain its effectiveness.
• Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed dose—do not take two doses at once to make up for the missed dose.

Side Effects

While Amdules AT is generally well-tolerated, some people may experience side effects. Common side effects include:

• Dizziness or light-headedness (especially when standing up quickly)
• Fatigue or tiredness
• Swelling of the ankles or feet (due to Amlodipine)
• Slow heart rate or bradycardia (due to Atenolol)
• Cold hands or feet
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
• Nausea or stomach discomfort

In rare cases, more serious side effects can occur, such as:

• Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling)
• Chest pain or irregular heartbeats
• Severe dizziness or fainting

If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

Precautions and Warnings

• Allergy: If you are allergic to Amlodipine, Atenolol, or any of the ingredients in this medication, do not use it.
• Heart Conditions: Use with caution in individuals with heart block, bradycardia, or heart failure.
• Kidney or Liver Disease: Inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, as dosage adjustments may be necessary.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
• Drug Interactions: Inform your doctor of any other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, as Amdules AT can interact with certain drugs, such as other blood pressure medications, diuretics, and medications affecting the heart.
