3. Indications and Dosage

Indications:Hypertension, angina.

The usual adult dose of amlodipine is 2.5 to 5 mg once daily by mouth. The dose may be increased based on symptoms, up to a maximum of 10 mg once daily. OD tablets may be allowed to dissolve in the mouth and then swallowed with saliva, or they may be swallowed with water.

4. Bioequivalence and Clinical Applications

Bioequivalent to Norvasc tablets (see figure below). The efficacy rate for hypertension in China was 85.5% (503/588). For patients for whom the 5 mg dose was insufficient, the dose was increased to 10 mg for 8 weeks, resulting in a further reduction in systolic blood pressure of 13.7 mmHg (compared to a 7.0 mmHg reduction in the control group continuing with 5 mg); At 52 weeks, the 10 mg dose reduced systolic blood pressure by 15.6 mmHg. Edema occurred in 3.31 TP3T of patients receiving 10 mg. The efficacy rate in the elderly was 86.51 TP3T. It had virtually no effect on glucose metabolism.
