Product Introduction
Amlong 10 Tablet is a calcium channel blocker 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, it helps prevent serious cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes.
Amlong 10 Tablet can be prescribed alone or alongside other medicines, depending on your condition and the severity of your symptoms. It’s important to take the medicine as prescribed and regularly monitor your blood pressure to ensure its effectiveness.
Salt Composition / Key Ingredient
- Amlodipine (10mg) – The active ingredient that helps relax blood vessels, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure.
How to Use Amlong 10 Tablet
- Dosage: Take Amlong 10 Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage will depend on the severity of your condition.
- Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not chew, crush, or break it.
- Timing: Amlong 10 can be taken with or without food, but it’s best to take it at the same time every day for consistency.

How Amlong 10 Tablet Works
Amlong 10 Tablet works by relaxing the blood vessels. This reduces the pressure in the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily throughout the body, thereby lowering blood pressure. For patients with angina (heart-related chest pain), the improved blood flow reduces the workload on the heart, providing more oxygen to the heart muscles and preventing chest pain.
