1. What is Amlodipino Tarbis Farma and what is it used for

Amlodipino Tarbis Farmacontains the active substance amlodipine which belongs to a group of medicines known as calcium antagonists.

AmlodipinoTarbis Farmais 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, amlodipine improves blood flow to the heart muscle, which receives more oxygen as a result, and this prevents chest pain. This medicine does not provide immediate relief from chest pain due to angina.

  • If you have very low blood pressure (hypotension).
  • If you have a narrowing of the aortic valve (aortic stenosis) in your heart or cardiogenic shock (a disease in which the heart is unable to pump enough blood to the body).
