CompositionAmlocom At 50/5 Mg Tablet 10 is a medicine used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and stable angina (chest pain). By controlling blood pressure and heart rate together, it helps reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke, and is especially useful for people who have both high blood pressure and a fast heart rate.
It contains amlodipine and atenolol, which belong to groups of medicines called calcium channel blockers and beta-blockers. Amlodipine relaxes the blood vessels, while atenolol slows the heart rate and reduces its oxygen demand. Take it daily at the same time, with or without food, and do not stop it suddenly, as this can cause a sharp rise in heart rate or chest pain.
Healthy lifestyle changes support treatment alongside this medicine. These include reducing salt in your diet, staying active as advised, maintaining a healthy weight, and limiting alcohol.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have asthma or breathing problems, a very slow heart rate, or diabetes, or are taking other medicines. Mild ankle swelling is common; tell your doctor if it becomes severe.
