Amlodipino Mabo 5 mg tablets EFG

Read this leaflet carefully before you start taking this medicine because it contains important information for you.

  • Keep this leaflet, as you may need to read it again.

1. What is Amlodipino Mabo and what is it used for

Amlodipino Mabo contains the active ingredient amlodipine (as besilate) which belongs to a group of medicines called calcium antagonists.

Amlodipine is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) or a certain type of chest pain called angina, which includes a less common type known as Prinzmetal's angina or variant angina.

In patients with high blood pressure, this medicine works by relaxing blood vessels, allowing blood to flow through them more easily. In patients with angina, Amlodipino works by improving blood flow to the heart muscle, which then receives more oxygen and as a result, chest pain is prevented. This medicine does not provide immediate relief from chest pain due to angina.
