Levamdocal Tablet 2.5 mg contains Levamlodipine Maleate, a third-generation calcium channel blocker used primarily for the management of hypertension and related cardiovascular conditions. Levamlodipine is the pharmacologically active S-enantiomer of amlodipine and offers effective blood pressure control at a lower dose with improved tolerability.

Levamdocal Tablet is especially suitable for patients who require gentle yet consistent blood pressure reduction, including elderly patients and those sensitive to higher doses of conventional antihypertensive agents. By improving blood flow and reducing vascular resistance, it helps lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications.

Therapeutic Indications

Levamdocal Tablet is indicated for the treatment of:

• Hypertension (high blood pressure)

• Mild to moderate essential hypertension

• Hypertension in elderly or low-body-weight patients

• Prevention of cardiovascular complications associated with uncontrolled blood pressure

It may be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive medications as prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Mechanism of Action

Levamlodipine Maleate selectively inhibits calcium ion influx through L-type calcium channels in vascular smooth muscle. This action leads to relaxation of blood vessels and a reduction in peripheral vascular resistance.

As a result:

• Blood vessels widen, improving blood flow

• Blood pressure decreases smoothly and consistently

• Cardiac workload is reduced without significantly affecting heart rate

Because Levamlodipine is the active isomer of amlodipine, it provides similar efficacy at a lower dose, potentially reducing dose-related side effects such as ankle edema and flushing.

Key Benefits

• Effective blood pressure control at a low dose

• Improved tolerability compared to racemic amlodipine

• Once-daily dosing for better compliance

• Suitable for elderly and sensitive patients

• Helps reduce long-term cardiovascular risks

Dosage and Administration

• Adults: One tablet (2.5 mg) once daily, or as directed by a physician.

• The tablet may be taken with or without food.

• Dose adjustments should be made gradually based on clinical response.

Patients should take Levamdocal Tablet regularly at the same time each day for optimal blood pressure control.
