OMSANA AM 10MG 40MG TAB 20s
-
Amlodipine 10mg and Olmesartan 40mg, when combined in a tablet, have a synergistic effect on lowering blood pressure. Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, inhibits the influx of calcium ions into smooth muscle cells, leading to vasodilation of blood vessels. This relaxation of vascular smooth muscles, particularly in the peripheral arterial system, reduces peripheral vascular resistance and lowers blood pressure. Olmesartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), acts by blocking the binding of angiotensin II to its receptors. Angiotensin II is a potent vasoconstrictor, and by blocking its effects, Olmesartan prevents the constriction of blood vessels and reduces blood pressure. Together, the combination of Amlodipine and Olmesartan provides enhanced blood pressure control by targeting different mechanisms involved in the regulation of vascular tone and blood volume.
