NEOPRESS AM TABLET 10'S

How NEOPRESS AM TABLET 10'S Works

• NEOPRESS AM TABLET 10'S is a combination medication designed to effectively manage hypertension (high blood pressure). It combines two powerful active ingredients: Amlodipine and Olmesartan Medoxomil. Each component works through a different mechanism of action to lower blood pressure, providing a synergistic effect that enhances overall efficacy.
• Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker. It works by inhibiting the influx of calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle cells and cardiac muscle cells. This inhibition causes the smooth muscles surrounding blood vessels to relax. As these muscles relax, the blood vessels widen (vasodilation), which reduces the resistance against which the heart has to pump. This vasodilation leads to a decrease in blood pressure. Amlodipine primarily affects arterial smooth muscle, making it effective in lowering systolic blood pressure (the pressure when the heart beats) and diastolic blood pressure (the pressure when the heart rests between beats).
• Olmesartan Medoxomil is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). Angiotensin II is a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict, increasing blood pressure. It also stimulates the release of aldosterone, which leads to sodium and water retention by the kidneys, further raising blood pressure. Olmesartan Medoxomil blocks the action of angiotensin II by preventing it from binding to its receptors in various tissues, including blood vessels and the adrenal glands. By blocking angiotensin II, Olmesartan Medoxomil causes vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) and reduces the release of aldosterone. This results in decreased sodium and water retention, further contributing to a lower blood pressure.
• The combination of Amlodipine and Olmesartan Medoxomil in NEOPRESS AM TABLET 10'S provides a comprehensive approach to blood pressure management. Amlodipine reduces vascular resistance by relaxing blood vessels, while Olmesartan Medoxomil blocks the effects of angiotensin II, preventing vasoconstriction and reducing fluid retention. This dual action results in a more effective and sustained reduction in blood pressure compared to using either medication alone. The synergistic effect helps to achieve blood pressure control with potentially fewer side effects than higher doses of individual medications.
• By effectively lowering blood pressure, NEOPRESS AM TABLET 10'S helps to reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems. Regular use, as prescribed by your healthcare provider, along with lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet and exercise, is crucial for maintaining optimal blood pressure levels and overall cardiovascular health. Always follow your doctor's instructions and attend regular check-ups to monitor your progress and manage any potential side effects.
