Hypertension: First line treatment of hypertension. It 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 besylate, which has been used in combination with a thiazide diuretic, beta-adrenoreceptor blocking agent, or an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor. Angina: First line treatment of chronic stable angina. Amlodipine besylate may be used alone, as monotherapy, or in combination with other antianginal drugs.

PHARMACOLOGY
Actions:
Amlodipine is a calcium ion influx inhibitor (slow channel blocker or
calcium ion
antagonist) and inhibits the transmembrane influx of calcium ions into
cardiac and
vascular smooth muscle.
PHARMACODYNAMICS
Experimental
data
suggest
that
amlodipine
binds
to
both
dihydropyridine
and
nondihydropyridine binding sites. The contractile processes of cardiac
muscle and
vascular smooth muscle are dependent upon the movement of
extracellular calcium
ions into these cells through specific ion channels. Amlodipine
inhibits calcium ion
influx across cell membranes selectively, with a greater effect on
vascular smooth
muscle cells than on cardiac muscle cells. Negative inotropic effects
can be detected
in vitro but such effects have not been seen in intact animals at
therapeutic doses.
Serum calcium concentration is not affected by amlodipine. Within the
physiological
pH range, amlodipine is an ionised compound (pK
a
= 8.6), and its kinetic interaction
with the calcium channel receptor is characterised by a gradual rate
of association and
dissociation with the receptor binding site, resulting in a gradual
onset of effect.
Amlodipine is a peripheral arterial vasodilator that acts
