About this product

Overview

Cabok 5mg Tablet contains Amlodipine Besylate as its active ingredient. Amlodipine belongs to the class of medications known as calcium channel blockers, primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain types of chest pain (angina). It works by relaxing the blood vessels, allowing the heart to pump blood more efficiently and reducing the workload on the heart.

Uses

Cabok 5mg Tablet is indicated for:

  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Helps in lowering blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more smoothly.
  • Chronic Stable Angina: Used to prevent chest pain (angina) associated with coronary artery disease by improving blood flow to the heart muscle.

  • Swelling in the ankles or feet (peripheral edema).
  • Flushing or feeling hot.
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness.

  • Liver or Kidney Problems: Use with caution in individuals with liver or kidney impairment, as dosage adjustment may be necessary.
  • Heart Conditions: Use cautiously in individuals with heart failure or severe aortic stenosis.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Use under medical supervision during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as the safety of Amlodipine in these circumstances has not been fully established.
