L-Amlo Tablet 2.5 mg contains Levamlodipine Maleate, a long-acting calcium channel blocker used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina pectoris. It helps relax blood vessels, improves blood flow, and reduces the workload on the heart, leading to better cardiovascular control.

Levamlodipine is the active S-enantiomer of amlodipine and is known for its effective blood pressure–lowering action at lower doses in some patients. By relaxing vascular smooth muscles, it reduces peripheral resistance and improves oxygen delivery to the heart muscle, helping prevent chest pain and long-term complications of uncontrolled hypertension.

L-Amlo Tablet is commonly used as a once-daily therapy for maintaining stable blood pressure and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage.
