Onato V 5/80mg Tablet is a combination medicine containing Amlodipine (5mg) and Valsartan (80mg). It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce the risk of heart-related complications.

Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels, while valsartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that prevents blood vessel constriction. Together, they provide effective and long-lasting blood pressure control.

This medicine is usually prescribed when a single drug is not enough to control blood pressure.
