1  Product


What conditions does Amodip treat? 
For the treatment of high blood pressure in cats 

 

How does Amodip work? 
It contains amlodipine. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker, member of the dihydropyridine group, binding selectively to the L-type of channels found in vascular smooth muscle, cardiac muscle and cardiac nodal tissue. Amlodipine favours the L-type calcium channels found in vascular smooth muscle acting hence predominantly by decreasing vascular resistance. The major blood pressure lowering effect of amlodipine is related to its dilatory action on arteries and arterioles, while amlodipine has little effect on the venous circulation. 

 

How should I administer Amodip to my pet? 
Tablets should be given orally, by mouth, according to the instructions on the label your vet has written.
