Lodopin 5mg Tablets are a medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina (chest pain). The active ingredient in Lodopin is amlodipine, which is a type of medication called a calcium channel blocker.
Amlodipine works by relaxing the blood vessels, which allows for easier blood flow and helps to lower blood pressure. It also helps to reduce the workload on the heart, which can help to reduce symptoms of angina.
Lodopin 5mg Tablets are typically taken orally once a day, with or without food, as directed by the doctor. The dosage may be adjusted by the doctor based on the patient's blood pressure and response to the medication.
Possible side effects of Lodopin 2.5mg Tablets may include headache, dizziness, flushing, and swelling in the ankles or feet. It is important to notify the doctor if any side effects are experienced while taking this medication.
Lodopin 5mg Tablets should not be taken by patients who are allergic to amlodipine or any other ingredients in the medication. It is also important to inform the doctor if the patient has any liver disease or heart problems, as the dosage of Lodopin may need to be adjusted in these cases.
