Q. What is amlodipine used for?|Amlodipine is indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension), angina pectoris (pain in the chest caused by blockages in the arteries leading to the heart) or chest pain classed as vasospastic angina pectoris (or Prinzmetal?s angina).|Q. Is amlodipine a calcium channel blocker and how does it works?|Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker. In patients with high blood pressure, it works by relaxing blood vessels, so that blood passes through them more easily.

It does not provide immediate relief of chest pain from angina.|Q. Is amlodipine safe?|Amlodipine is safe if used at prescribed doses for the prescribed duration as advised by your doctor.
