Product Details

M-Low 5mg Tablets contain amlodipine besylate, which is commonly used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and alleviate chest pain (angina). Amlodipine works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood, which lowers overall blood pressure. Tablets are an effective treatment option for reducing the risk of complications caused by hypertension and certain types of angina.

Purposes

The primary purpose of M-Low 5mg Tablets is to control high blood pressure and prevent related heart conditions. They are also indicated for treating stable and variant angina, offering relief by reducing the heart's workload. These tablets are commonly prescribed as a first-line treatment for hypertension, and they can be used alone or combined with other medications.

Warnings

Patients with liver impairment should use M-Low 5mg Tablets with caution, as the medication’s half-life is extended in these individuals. There is no established safety data for the use of amlodipine in pregnant or lactating women, so medical advice is essential before starting treatment.  Tablets do not require dosage adjustment for patients with renal impairment.

Adverse Effects

While Tablets are generally well tolerated, some patients may experience mild side effects such as headaches, dizziness, fatigue, nausea, or swelling (edema). In rare cases, more severe side effects may occur. It’s important to report any unusual symptoms to your healthcare provider.

Cautions

Patients who are hypersensitive to dihydropyridines should avoid Tablets. Additionally, drug interactions may occur when taken alongside medications like azole antifungals, simvastatin, or erythromycin. Grapefruit juice may also affect how the body metabolizes the medication, so it’s best to limit intake during treatment. Always follow your doctor’s advice on proper dosage and usage.
