Norvasc (active ingredient: amlodipine) is a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure and certain types of chest pain related to coronary artery disease. It belongs to a class of medications called calcium channel blockers.
Norvasc works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, which helps blood flow more easily. This can lower blood pressure, reduce strain on the heart, and improve oxygen-rich blood flow to the heart muscle.
Norvasc is used to treat hypertension, also known as high blood pressure. It may be used alone or with other blood pressure medications.
Lowering high blood pressure helps reduce the risk of serious health problems, such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage. Since high blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms, it is important to take Norvasc regularly as prescribed.
Norvasc is also used to manage certain types of angina, which is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. This includes chronic stable angina and vasospastic angina, also called Prinzmetal’s or variant angina.
By relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow, Norvasc can help reduce how often angina occurs and make it easier for the heart to get the oxygen it needs.
Norvasc works by blocking calcium from entering certain muscle cells in the blood vessels and heart. This helps the blood vessels relax and widen, lowering blood pressure and reducing the heart’s workload.
For people with angina, improved blood flow can help reduce chest pain and improve exercise tolerance.
Norvasc is usually taken by mouth once daily, exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. It can be taken with or without food.
Swallow the tablet with water. Try to take Norvasc at the same time each day to help keep a steady amount of medication in your body and make it easier to remember your dose.
Do not stop taking Norvasc without speaking with your healthcare provider first. Stopping blood pressure medication suddenly may cause your blood pressure to rise again or may worsen your condition.
Even if you feel well, continue taking Norvasc as prescribed. High blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms, but it can still increase the risk of serious health problems if left untreated.
The usual adult dose of Norvasc for high blood pressure or angina is 5 mg to 10 mg by mouth once daily.
The maximum recommended adult dose is 10 mg once daily.
Your healthcare provider may start you on a lower dose and adjust it based on your blood pressure, symptoms, response to treatment, and side effects.
For children 6 years of age and older, the usual dose is 2.5 mg to 5 mg by mouth once daily.
The maximum recommended dose for children is 5 mg once daily.
A child’s dose should always be determined by a healthcare provider based on age, weight, medical condition, and response to treatment.
Before taking Norvasc, tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use. This helps reduce the risk of drug interactions.
Also tell your healthcare provider if you experience side effects such as dizziness, swelling in the ankles or feet, flushing, tiredness, or a fast heartbeat. Your provider may need to adjust your treatment plan.
Norvasc (Amlodipine) is available in the following forms and strength:
Before taking Norvasc, tell your healthcare provider about your full medical history. This includes any heart conditions, liver problems, pregnancy plans, and all medications or supplements you take.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have liver disease. Norvasc is processed by the liver, so people with liver problems may need a lower dose or closer monitoring.
Your healthcare provider will decide whether Norvasc is safe for you based on your liver function and overall health.
Before starting Norvasc, tell your healthcare provider if you have congestive heart failure, heart valve problems, or certain types of heart disease.
Norvasc relaxes blood vessels and lowers blood pressure, which can affect how the heart works in some people. Your provider may monitor you more closely, especially when starting treatment or changing your dose.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have ever had angioedema, which is swelling under the skin, often around the face, lips, tongue, throat, or eyes.
Although angioedema is not common with Norvasc, any history of serious swelling reactions should be discussed before starting treatment.
Alcohol can lower blood pressure and may increase certain Norvasc side effects, such as dizziness, lightheadedness, flushing, or fainting.
Ask your healthcare provider whether it is safe for you to drink alcohol while taking Norvasc.
If you are taking Norvasc for high blood pressure, continue taking it even if you feel well. High blood pressure often has no symptoms, but it can still increase the risk of serious health problems if left untreated.
Do not stop taking Norvasc without speaking with your healthcare provider first.
Norvasc may be only one part of your treatment plan. Your healthcare provider may also recommend healthy lifestyle changes, such as diet changes, regular exercise, weight management, reduced salt intake, and other medications.
Follow your medication, diet, and exercise plan closely to help manage your blood pressure or heart condition effectively.
Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Your provider will weigh the potential benefits and risks of Norvasc and decide whether it is appropriate for you.
Do not start or stop Norvasc during pregnancy without medical advice.
The typical adult dose of Norvasc is 5 mg to 10 mg by mouth once daily. The maximum recommended adult dose is 10 mg once daily. For children 6 years of age and older, the usual dose is lower, typically 2.5 mg to 5 mg by mouth once daily. The maximum recommended pediatric dose is 5 mg once daily. Your healthcare provider will choose the dose based on your age, condition, blood pressure response, and any side effects you may experience.
Norvasc can be taken at any time of day, but it is best to take it at the same time every day. This helps keep a steady amount of medication in your body and makes it easier to remember your dose. You can take Norvasc with or without food. Swallow the tablet with water and follow your healthcare provider’s instructions.
Norvasc can be taken with some medications, but it may interact with others. Before starting Norvasc, tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you take. This is especially important if you take other blood pressure medications, heart medications, or medicines that may affect how amlodipine is processed in the body.
Norvasc starts working after you take it, but blood pressure improvement may happen gradually. Amlodipine usually reaches its highest level in the blood within about 6 to 12 hours after a dose. It may take about 1 week of regular daily use for Norvasc to reach a steady level in the body and provide its full blood pressure-lowering effect. Continue taking Norvasc as prescribed, even if you do not feel different. High blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms.
