Amlong Tablet belongs to a class of medicines known as calcium channel blockers. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and prevent angina (heart-related chest pain). It lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart’s workload, which helps prevent heart attacks and strokes.
Amlong Tablet may be prescribed alone or along with other medicines. The dose depends on what you are taking it for and the severity of your condition.

Keeping yourself active with regular exercise, managing your weight, and eating a healthy diet will also help control your blood pressure.

In high blood pressure, it normalizes the blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels to reduce the pressure on them, thereby improving the blood flow in the body.
