What is Amlopres 10mg Used For?
- Maximum standard Amlodipine dose for hypertension not adequately controlled at 5mg.
- Chronic stable angina — reduces chest pain and improves exercise tolerance.
- Long-term cardiovascular risk reduction in patients with coronary artery disease.
How Does Amlopres 10mg Work?
- Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker that blocks L-type calcium channels in vascular smooth muscle.
- Relaxes and widens peripheral arteries, reducing systemic vascular resistance and blood pressure.
- Increases coronary blood flow, reducing myocardial oxygen demand and relieving angina.
- Provides 24-hour blood pressure coverage with once-daily dosing (half-life 35–50 hours).
How to Use Amlopres 10mg
Dosage: 10mg once daily (maximum standard dose), prescribed after titration from lower doses.
Timing: Take at the same time each day, with or without food.
Precaution: Do not stop abruptly. Avoid grapefruit juice. Monitor for ankle swelling.

Common Side Effects: Ankle swelling (most common at 10mg, affects ~10–20% of patients), headache, flushing, dizziness.

Drug Interactions

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is Amlopres Amlodipine 10mg used for?
Amlopres 10mg contains Amlodipine Besylate 10mg, the maximum standard dose. It treats high blood pressure and stable angina, and is used when lower Amlodipine doses have not adequately controlled blood pressure.
Q2: How does Amlodipine 10mg lower blood pressure?
Amlodipine blocks calcium entry into smooth muscle cells of blood vessel walls, causing them to relax. Wider blood vessels reduce the resistance the heart pumps against, lowering blood pressure.
Q3: Is Amlopres 10mg safe for long-term use?
Yes. Amlodipine has a well-established long-term safety profile and is one of the most widely prescribed antihypertensive medicines globally. Regular blood pressure monitoring is standard.
Q4: How quickly does Amlopres 10mg work?
Blood pressure begins to fall within 24 to 48 hours. The full therapeutic effect typically establishes over 1 to 2 weeks of daily use.
Q5: Does Amlopres 10mg cause ankle swelling?
Ankle oedema is the most common side effect at 10mg, affecting 10–20% of patients. Elevating your legs and reducing salt intake can help. Speak to your doctor if it is severe.
Q6: Can I take Amlopres 10mg with food?
Yes. Food does not significantly affect Amlodipine absorption. Take it consistently at the same time each day.
Q7: What are the common side effects of Amlopres 10mg?
Common side effects include ankle swelling, flushing, headache, and mild dizziness. Most are mild and improve after the first few weeks of treatment.
Q8: Can I stop Amlopres 10mg suddenly?
No. Always consult your doctor before stopping. Abrupt withdrawal can cause a rebound rise in blood pressure. Your doctor will advise on safe discontinuation.
Q9: Is Amlodipine 10mg safe for diabetic patients?
Yes. Amlodipine does not affect blood glucose and is widely used alongside diabetes medicines without significant interactions.
Q10: Should I avoid grapefruit with Amlopres 10mg?
Yes. Grapefruit inhibits the CYP3A4 enzyme that metabolises Amlodipine, which can increase blood levels and intensify side effects. Avoid grapefruit juice during treatment.
Q11: What if I miss a dose of Amlopres?
Take it as soon as you remember on the same day. If it is the next day, skip the missed dose and continue your usual schedule. Never double up.
Q12: How should I store Amlopres 10mg tablets?
Store at room temperature below 30°C, away from heat, light, and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
