Norvasc (amlodipine) is a calcium channel blocker usually prescribed to treat high blood pressure and chronic angina by relaxing blood vessels. The resulting lower blood pressure relieves stress on vessel walls and increases blood supply to the heart.

Over time Norvasc can significantly reduce occurrences of chest pain, but it will not stop chest pain once it has started. Additional medication, such as fast-acting nitroglycerin, may be prescribed to address chest pain when it starts.

Why Buy Norvasc?

Most patients buy Norvasc to control high blood pressure. Norvasc can be a key component in alleviating symptoms and preventing injury, hospitalization, disability and premature death from blood pressure related illness:
  • High Blood Pressure (hypertension): Patients with high blood pressure are at increased risk of heart attack and stroke. High blood pressure can also cause a number of unpleasant side effects, ranging from mild to debilitating.
  • Angina: Angina describes discomfort to severe pain in the chest resulting from insufficient blood supply to the heart. In some patients the pain radiates out to shoulders, arms, neck, back and the jaw. Norvasc is effective in treating chronic stable angina, vasospastic angina, and angiographically documented coronary artery disease.
Treatment with Norvasc is a long-term approach to regulating blood pressure. Proper use of Norvasc can prevent episodes of angina from occurring, but will not alleviate pain once an attack has started. Additional fast-acting medication may also be prescribed.

A prescription is required to buy Norvasc.

Taking Norvasc:

This medication comes in tablet form and is taken orally, usually once a day. Physician instructions should be followed carefully for the duration of the treatment.

Dosage typically varies from 2.5 mg to 10 mg, depending on the condition being treated. A patient can only buy Norvasc in the dosage prescribed. It is not unusual for dosages to be adjusted multiple times over the course of treatment.

A missed dose should be taken as soon as it is remembered, or be skipped entirely if it is near time for the next dose. Do not take a double dose of Norvasc.

Norvasc controls high blood pressure but does not cure it. Symptoms are likely to recur if treatment is halted prior to physician recommendation.

Ingredients:

Active ingredient: amlodipine besylate (Amlodipine).

Inactive ingredients: magnesium stearate, dibasic calcium phosphate anhydrous, sodium starch glycolate, microcrystalline cellulose.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in Norvasc should not take it.

Adverse Effects and Warnings:

As with any medication, some patients may experience side effects. For the most part side effects associated with Norvasc are mild:
  • Headache
  • Drowsiness or fatigue
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Upset stomach or stomach pain
  • Flushing (feeling of warmth)
  • Swelling of hands, feet, ankles, or lower legs (edema)
In very rare cases Norvasc may trigger chest pain or a heart attack shortly after treatment is begun. Patients should be alert to any warning signs and seek immediate medical attention if they occur:
  • More frequent or more severe chest pain
  • Rapid, pounding, or irregular heartbeat
  • Fainting
Norvasc is known to interact with certain prescription and non-prescription medications. The prescribing physician should be made aware of all medications being taken and immediately notified of any changes.

The effects of Norvasc on unborn or breastfeeding babies is unknown. The medication should be avoided while pregnant or breastfeeding unless the benefits clearly outweigh the risks.
