Product Description
Amlosafe-LS 5/5 Tablet is a combination of two powerful antihypertensive medicines — Amlodipine and Lisinopril. It helps effectively manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduces the risk of serious cardiovascular events like heart attack, stroke, or kidney damage.
Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes and widens blood vessels, improving blood flow. Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor that prevents the narrowing of blood vessels and helps the heart pump blood more efficiently. Together, they provide better blood pressure control and protect the heart from long-term damage.
