📋 Product Specifications

How Avsar 10mg+160mg Tablet Works

Amlodipine relaxes and widens blood vessels by blocking calcium entry into their muscle cells, and valsartan blocks angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. Together, the two medicines lower blood pressure more than either one alone, which reduces the risk of stroke, heart attack and kidney damage.

Avsar 10mg+160mg Tablet Uses

•       Hypertension: lowers high blood pressure in adults

•       Add-On Therapy: for patients whose blood pressure is not controlled on amlodipine or valsartan alone

•       Replacement Therapy: replaces separate amlodipine and valsartan tablets at the same doses, cutting the daily pill count

Who Should Use Avsar 10mg+160mg Tablet

Adults with high blood pressure whose doctor has prescribed amlodipine 10 mg and valsartan 160 mg together. High blood pressure is common and often uncontrolled: the WHO estimates 1.28 billion adults aged 30-79 have hypertension and only about 1 in 5 have it under control, and the National Health Survey of Pakistan (1990-94) found it in 17.9% of adults and one in three people over 45.

🚫 Who Should Avoid It

•       Pregnancy: do not use; stop and contact your doctor as soon as pregnancy is detected

•       Allergy: to amlodipine, other dihydropyridines or valsartan

•       Aliskiren: do not combine with aliskiren in people with diabetes

🛡️ Precautions and Drug Interactions

Tell your doctor about all medicines you take. Potassium supplements, potassium-containing salt substitutes and potassium-sparing diuretics can raise potassium levels. Painkillers such as ibuprofen (NSAIDs) can reduce the effect and strain the kidneys. Avoid combining with other RAS blockers such as ACE inhibitors or aliskiren unless a specialist advises it. Lithium levels need monitoring, simvastatin should not exceed 20 mg daily, and grapefruit juice can increase amlodipine levels. Dizziness can affect driving, especially in the first days of treatment.
