Amlodipine-clonidine

What is Amlodipine-clonidine? Amlodipine-clonidine is a combination medication of a calcium channel blocker and an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist. This antihypertensive medication works by relaxing blood vessels and reducing heart rate to decrease blood pressure in patients with hypertension or high blood pressure associated with diabetes or chronic kidney disease. What is Amlodipine-clonidine used for? Amlodipine-Clonidine is an experimental antihypertensive medication, which represents a fixed-dose combination of the calcium channel blocker Amlodipine and the centrally acting antihypertensive agent Clonidine....

Amlodipine-diazoxide

What is Amlodipine-diazoxide? Amlodipine-Diazoxide, also known as Ryezax, is an investigational fixed-dose combination medication. It consists of amlodipine besylate, an antihypertensive calcium channel blocker, and diazoxide, a vasodilatory potassium channel opener. This fixed-dose combination is designed to treat essential hypertension by reducing peripheral resistance through two different mechanisms. What is Amlodipine-diazoxide used for? Amlodipine-diazoxide, also known as AZD7659 or AZD6567, is an experimental medication in development by pharmaceutical companies. As of the last update, this investigational medication combines the calcium channel blocker amlodipine with diazoxide, another vasodilatory agent....

Amlodipine-diltiazem

What is Amlodipine-diltiazem? Diovan HCT (a brand name for the combination) contains Amlodipine-bisoprolol and not Amlodipine-Diltiazem. However, it seems like you’re looking for a combination of Amlodipine and Diltiazem. If that’s correct, then: Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure and angina. It works by relaxing the muscles around the heart and its arteries. Diltiazem is also a calcium channel blocker, but it primarily targets the cardiac muscle....

Amlodipine-doxazosin

What is Amlodipine-doxazosin? Amlodipine-doxazosin is a fixed-dose combination medication composed of Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker used to treat hypertension and angina, and Doxazosin, an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor antagonist used to treat benign prostatic hyperplasia and high blood pressure. This combination product is intended for the treatment of hypertension in adults. What is Amlodipine-doxazosin used for? Amlodipine-doxazosin, also known as Caduet or Nexofenad, is not an actual combination medication that I am aware of....

Amlodipine-enalapril

What is Amlodipine-enalapril? Amlodipine-Enalapril, also known as a fixed-dose combination of Amlodipine and Enalapril, is an antihypertensive medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults. It works by relaxing the blood vessels and reducing the heart’s workload, thereby lowering blood pressure. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that inhibits the entry of calcium ions into cardiac muscle and vascular smooth muscle cells, resulting in vasodilation. Enalapril, on the other hand, is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor that blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, thereby reducing blood pressure further....
