Levamlodipine
Levamlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow by blocking calcium from entering vascular smooth muscle cells. It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain types of chest pain (angina). By lowering blood pressure, it helps reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and stable angina (chest pain). May be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents.
As a dihydropyridine calcium antagonist, levamlodipine inhibits the transmembrane influx of calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. This causes relaxation of arterial smooth muscle, vasodilation, and reduced peripheral vascular resistance, leading to decreased blood pressure.
May cause peripheral edema (swelling of ankles/feet), headache, or flushing. Use with caution in patients with heart failure or hepatic impairment. Do not stop taking abruptly without medical advice. Regular blood pressure monitoring is recommended during treatment.
