Dowtor 5mg/80mg Tablets Ingredients and Usage
Dowtor 5mg/80mg Tablets contain a lower-strength combination of Amlodipine and Valsartan. This clinical formulation is often used as an initial step for patients transitioning from single-drug therapy to combination therapy for hypertension. It is designed to provide effective control with a lower risk of dose-dependent adverse effects. PakMeds delivers this cardiovascular medication to support patients in the early stages of combination therapy, ensuring a smooth and safe transition to better blood pressure control.
How Does Dowtor 5mg/80mg Tablets Work?
This medication works by targeting two different physiological pathways to lower blood pressure. Amlodipine, a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker, relaxes the arterial walls. Valsartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker, prevents the narrowing of the vessels caused by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system. By using these two ingredients together at 5mg and 80mg respectively, Dowtor achieves a synergistic effect that is more potent than doubling the dose of either drug alone, providing efficient and steady blood pressure reduction.
Dowtor 5mg/80mg Tablets Side Effects
Side effects are generally infrequent and mild at this dosage, including headache, fatigue, and a slight feeling of dizziness upon standing. Occasionally, patients may experience flushing or a dry cough. These symptoms usually diminish as the body adapts to the medication.
