dr. reddy's laboratories inc - amlodipine besylate (unii: 864v2q084h) (amlodipine - unii:1j444qc288), atorvastatin calcium trihydrate (unii: 48a5m73z4q) (atorvastatin - unii:a0jwa85v8f) - amlodipine 2.5 mg - amlodipine besylate and atorvastatin calcium tablets are indicated in patients for whom treatment with both amlodipine and atorvastatin is appropriate.   amlodipine amlodipine is indicated for the treatment of hypertension, to lower blood pressure. lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions. these benefits have been seen in controlled trials of antihypertensive drugs from a wide variety of pharmacologic classes including amlodipine.   control of high blood pressure should be part of comprehensive cardiovascular risk management, including, as appropriate, lipid control, diabetes management, antithrombotic therapy, smoking cessation, exercise, and limited sodium intake. many patients will require more than one drug to achieve blood pressure goals. for specific advice on goals and management, see published guidelines, such as those of the national high blood pressure education program’s joint national committee on prevention,

aspen pharmacare australia pty ltd - atorvastatin calcium trihydrate, quantity: 43.4 mg (equivalent: atorvastatin, qty 40 mg); amlodipine besilate, quantity: 13.87 mg (equivalent: amlodipine, qty 10 mg) - tablet, film coated - excipient ingredients: colloidal anhydrous silica; calcium carbonate; microcrystalline cellulose; croscarmellose sodium; hyprolose; magnesium stearate; pregelatinised maize starch; polysorbate 80; titanium dioxide; indigo carmine; purified talc; polyvinyl alcohol; macrogol 3000 - caduet (amlodipine and atorvastatin) is indicated for patients in whom treatment with amlodipine and atorvastatin is appropriate at the doses presented. the indications for amlodipine are: 1. hypertension: amlodipine 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. 2. angina: amlodipine is indicated for the first line treatment of chronic stable angina. amlodipine may be used alone, as monotherapy or in combination with other antianginal drugs. the indications for atorvastatin are: 1. atorvastatin is indicated as an adjunct to diet for the treatment of patients with hypercholesterolaemia. prior to initiating therapy with atorvastatin, secondary causes of hypercholesterolaemia (e.g. poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, nephrotic syndrome, dysproteinaemias, obstructive liver disease, other drug therapy, and alcoholism) should be identified and treated. 2. atorvastatin is indicated in hypertensive patients with multiple risk factors for coronary heart disease (chd) which may include diabetes, history of stroke or other cerebrovascular disease, peripheral vascular disease or existing asymptomatic chd (see clinical trials, prevention of cardiovascular disease) to reduce the risk of non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal stroke. these effects do not replace the need to independently control known causes of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity such as hypertension, diabetes and smoking.
