4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 Therapeutic indications
Vasorex is indicated for the first line treatment of hypertension and
can be used as the
sole agent to control blood pressure in the majority of patients.
Patients not adequately
controlled on a single antihypertensive agent may benefit from the
addition of amlodipine,
which has been used in combination with a thiazide diuretic, beta
adrenoceptor blocking
agent, or an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor.
Vasorex is indicated for the first line treatment of myocardial
ischaemia, whether due to
fixed obstruction (stable angina) and/or vasospasm/vasoconstriction
(Prinzmetal's or
variant angina) of coronary vasculature.
Vasorex
may
be
used
where
the
clinical
presentation
suggests
a
possible
vasospastic/vasoconstrictive component but where
vasospasm/vasoconstriction has not
been confirmed. Vasorex may be used alone as monotherapy, or in
combination with other
anti
