Extor 5/160 (Amlodipine + Valsartan) Tablets – Effective Blood Pressure Control

Extor 5/160 is a combination medication containing Amlodipine (5mg) and Valsartan (160mg). It is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) by relaxing blood vessels, improving blood flow, and reducing strain on the heart.

Key Benefits of Extor 5/160:

• Lowers High Blood Pressure – Helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
• Dual Mechanism for Better Control – Amlodipine relaxes blood vessels, while Valsartan blocks substances that tighten blood vessels.
• Reduces Heart Workload – Helps the heart pump more efficiently.
• Improves Blood Circulation – Enhances oxygen and nutrient supply to the body.
• Protects Kidney Function – Beneficial for hypertensive patients at risk of kidney damage.

How Extor 5/160 Works:

• Amlodipine (Calcium Channel Blocker): Prevents calcium from entering heart and blood vessel muscles, leading to relaxed arteries and reduced blood pressure.
• Valsartan (Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker – ARB): Blocks a hormone that tightens blood vessels, helping them stay relaxed.
• Combined Effect: Works together to achieve better blood pressure control than using either drug alone.
