Amlopres L Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat high blood pressure when a single medication is not effective. It helps lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. This reduces the risk of future heart attack and stroke. It's best to take it at the same time each day, with or without food. Continue taking it as prescribed, even if you feel well. Lifestyle changes like exercise and a healthy diet also help manage blood pressure.
