Norvasc is one of the most effective cardiac medications used to treat high blood pressure and prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Norvasc is used in cases of severe chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system when hypertension increases the risk of death. Norvasc is used in the following cases: myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary edema, cerebral edema and ischemic heart disease in combination with other drugs for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, in particular, with drugs that reduce the formation of clots and occlusion of blood vessels.

Amlodipine besylate is the main active ingredient in Norvasc. The action mechanism of the drug consists in widening of the blood vessels, due to the intake of calcium in the smooth muscles of the heart muscle cells. As a result, the heart rate is reduced, and as a result of vasodilation, reduction in blood pressure occurs.

Hypotensive effect develops slowly during 1-1.5 hours after usage of medication, but the duration is very long, up to 24 hours.

Therapeutic effect of Norvasc causes the widening of the peripheral arteries, reduces the pressure on the heart muscle, increases the volume of oxygen to the myocardium, reduces the risk of sudden spasms of the coronary arteries, and reduces the likelihood of an attack of angina pectoris, myocardial ischemia, as well as providing an overall positive effect on the cardiovascular system.
