Metograf Am 50/5 MG Tablet 10 contains two active ingredients that work together to manage high blood pressure and chest pain:

• Amlodipine (5 mg): As a calcium channel blocker, it prevents calcium from entering the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels. This causes the blood vessels to relax and widen (vasodilation), improving blood flow and reducing blood pressure.

• Metoprolol (50 mg): This beta-blocker works by blocking the effect of the hormone adrenaline on the heart's beta-1 receptors. This slows down the heart rate, decreases the force of heart contractions, and reduces the heart's workload and oxygen demand.

• Store Metograf Am 50/5 MG Tablet 10 at room temperature in a dry place.

• Keep in the original packaging, away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Store in a safe place out of reach of children and pets.

• Do not use the medicine after its expiry date.

• Discard any unused tablets properly as directed by your doctor.

• Reduce salt intake: Limit your consumption of high-sodium foods like processed meals, canned soups, and salty snacks, as excess sodium can raise blood pressure and reduce the effectiveness of your medicine.

• Regular physical activity: Aim for 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week, such as brisk walking or swimming, to help manage your blood pressure and improve heart health.
