Cardinol Plus Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Cardinol Plus Tablet 10 is composed of two active ingredients:

• Amlodipine (5 mg): This ingredient falls under the category of calcium channel blockers. Its primary action is restricting the movement of calcium ions into the heart and vascular smooth muscle cells. By doing so, it helps widen your blood vessels and improve the supply of blood and oxygen to your heart. This action effectively lowers high blood pressure.
• Atenolol (50 mg): As a beta blocker, atenolol specifically targets beta-1-adrenergic receptors in your heart and vascular smooth muscle. By blocking these receptors, it reduces the effects of chemicals that can increase heart rate and blood pressure. This action helps slow down your heart rate and decrease blood pressure.

These combined mechanisms contribute effectively to managing hypertension by reducing both peripheral resistance and cardiac output.

• Store Cardinol Plus Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place at room temperature.
• Avoid exposure to light and moisture.
• Keep the medicine out of reach of children.
• Always check the expiration date on the package before use.

• Since this medicine is used to manage high blood pressure, reducing your salt intake can help control hypertension.
• Engage in moderate physical activity, like walking or cycling, to help lower blood pressure by strengthening your heart and making it more efficient at pumping blood.
