Eziday Duo Tablet 5/50mg is a combination medicine containing Amlodipine 5mg and Losartan Potassium 50mg. It is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) in patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with a single medicine. This dual-action combination helps relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing the workload on the heart.

By effectively controlling blood pressure, Eziday Duo helps lower the risk of serious cardiovascular complications such as heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and kidney damage.

How It Works

Eziday Duo combines two medicines that work in different ways:

• Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes the muscles of the blood vessels, allowing them to widen.
• Losartan Potassium is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. This further lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart and kidneys.

Together, these medicines provide more effective blood pressure control than either medicine alone.

Common Side Effects

• Dizziness
