Description
Product Introduction
Amlong Tablet belongs to the class of medications called calcium channel blockers. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent angina (heart-related chest pain). By lowering blood pressure and reducing the workload on the heart, Amlong Tablet helps prevent heart attacks and strokes. The dose will depend on your specific condition, and it may be prescribed alone or alongside other medications. You can take this medicine at any time of day, with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time each day. Do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor, as high blood pressure often has no symptoms, and discontinuing the medication could worsen your condition. Regular physical activity, a healthy diet, and weight management can help improve your blood pressure control.
