Scientific Evidence
Samlopin (Amlodipine) tablets 2.5 mg have been extensively studied for their efficacy in managing hypertension and coronary artery disease. Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, relaxes blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and improving blood flow to the heart. Clinical trials have shown significant reductions in blood pressure levels with amlodipine therapy.
Research in the American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs demonstrated amlodipine’s effectiveness in reducing cardiovascular events and improving outcomes in hypertensive patients. Its long-acting effects make it a preferred choice for many healthcare providers in hypertension management.
