Product Description:
- Aprovasc Tablet is a combination of two medicines :
Irbesartan and Amlodipine:
Irbesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB):
- It relaxes the blood vessel by blocking the action of a chemical that usually makes blood vessels tighter.
- This lowers the blood pressure, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly to different organs and the heart to pump more efficiently.
Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker:
- In high blood pressure, it normalizes the blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels to reduce the pressure on them, thereby improving the blood flow in the body.
- The enhanced blood flow in the body, further relaxes the heart muscles by reducing the workload on the heart. It also improves the oxygen flow in the body, thereby, preventing any heart-related chest pain.
