Stamlo 10 Tablet

Description

Product Overview: Stamlo 10 Tablet

Stamlo 10 Tablet is a calcium channel blocker used primarily to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent angina (heart-related chest pain). By lowering blood pressure and reducing the heart’s workload, it helps prevent complications like heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage.

Salt Composition:

• Amlodipine (10 mg)

How It Works:

Stamlo 10 Tablet contains Amlodipine, which works by blocking calcium from entering the smooth muscle cells of the heart and blood vessels. This helps the blood vessels to relax and widen, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure. For patients with angina (chest pain), this effect helps reduce the workload on the heart and improves oxygen delivery, reducing the frequency of chest pain episodes.

How to Use:

• Dosage: Take Stamlo 10 Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage will depend on your individual condition and its severity.
• With or Without Food: You can take this medicine with or without food, but it’s best to take it at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels of the medication.
• Do Not Stop Suddenly: Even if you feel better, continue taking Stamlo 10 Tablet as prescribed. Stopping the medication abruptly can worsen high blood pressure and increase your risk of heart problems.

Benefits:

• In Hypertension: Stamlo 10 Tablet works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, which helps lower blood pressure. This reduces the strain on the heart and lowers the risk of complications such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage.
• In Angina: By improving blood flow and reducing the workload on the heart, Stamlo 10 Tablet prevents chest pain and helps keep angina episodes under control.
• In Arrhythmia: Amlodipine, the active ingredient, may help control abnormal heart rhythms by normalizing blood flow and heart rate.
• Hypertensive Emergency: In cases of high blood pressure that require immediate intervention, Stamlo 10 Tablet can help stabilize the blood pressure.
• Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: It can help in cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage (bleeding around the brain) by reducing the risk of vasospasm (narrowing of blood vessels).
• Anal Fissure: It may be used to alleviate pain and aid in healing in some cases of anal fissures by improving blood circulation.

Common Side Effects:

While Stamlo 10 Tablet is generally well tolerated, some patients may experience side effects:

• Headache
• Fatigue
• Nausea
• Abdominal pain
• Somnolence (sleepiness)
• Edema (swelling)

Most of these side effects are mild and tend to resolve as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if any of these persist or become bothersome, consult your doctor.
