Each film-coated tablet contains Amlodipine besilate equivalent to Amlodipine 5 mg and Losartan potassium 50 mg.
Amlodipine inhibits the movement of Ca ions across the cell membrane into vascular smooth muscles and myocytes. Action is greater in the arterial resistant vessels causing peripheral vasodilatation and reduction in afterload. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor (type AT1) antagonists antihypertensive which acts by blocking the actions of angiotensin II of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. The drug and its active metabolite selectively block the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively antagonizing the binding of angiotensin II to AT1 receptors.
