How AMLODIPINE BESYLATE, VALSARTAN AND HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE Works

Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium antagonist that inhibits the transmembrane influx of extracellular calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle cells. By binding to the L-type calcium channels, it inhibits the contractile processes of the muscle cells. Amlodipine acts selectively, with a significantly greater effect on vascular smooth muscle cells than on cardiac muscle cells. This results in peripheral arterial vasodilation, which reduces total peripheral resistance and lowers blood pressure. In patients with angina, amlodipine reduces the total peripheral resistance (afterload) against which the heart works and prevents coronary artery constriction, thereby improving myocardial oxygen delivery and reducing cardiac workload.
