Amtas-AT Tablet

Product Introduction
Amtas-AT Tablet is prescribed to help manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and chest pain related to heart conditions (angina). It combines two medicines that work together to control blood pressure when a single medicine isn’t sufficient. By effectively lowering blood pressure, it reduces the risk of serious health problems such as heart attacks and strokes in the future.

This tablet can be taken with or without food, but it’s best to take it at the same time every day to maintain consistent levels in your body. Continue using it as directed by your doctor, even if you feel well, because high blood pressure often shows no noticeable symptoms. Stopping the medication suddenly can make your condition worse. Along with taking this medicine, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and following a balanced diet will help improve your overall heart health.

Some people may experience side effects such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, a slower heart rate, or swelling in certain parts of the body. Since it may cause dizziness, avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how your body reacts to it. The medicine can also increase potassium levels, so it is best to avoid foods and supplements rich in potassium. Your doctor may recommend regular check-ups to monitor blood pressure, kidney function, and electrolyte balance during the course of treatment.

Before starting this medication, inform your doctor about any liver or kidney conditions you may have. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should seek medical advice before use. It’s also important to tell your doctor about any other medicines you are taking, especially those for heart problems or high blood pressure.

Uses of Amtas-AT Tablet

• Management of high blood pressure (hypertension)

• Relief from chest pain due to angina

Benefits of Amtas-AT Tablet
For individuals with high blood pressure, Amtas-AT Tablet offers a dual-action approach by combining two active ingredients: Amlodipine and Atenolol. These work together to relax blood vessels and slow the heart rate, making it easier for the heart to pump blood efficiently. As a result, blood pressure is lowered and the risk of complications such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney damage is significantly reduced.

Even though you may not feel immediate improvements, taking the medicine regularly helps maintain heart health in the long run. Combining this treatment with healthy lifestyle choices like balanced eating and regular physical activity can enhance its benefits.
