Basic Information

Mechanism Of Action

Beboxia 50AM Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Amlodipine and Metoprolol, which lowers blood pressure effectively. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker which works by relaxing blood vessels while metoprolol is a beta blocker that works specifically on the heart to slow down the heart rate. Together, they make the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body.


Pharmacokinets

Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium antagonist drug with distinctive pharmacokinetic characteristics which appear to be attributable to a high degree of ionisation. Following oral administration, bioavailability is 60 to 65% and plasma concentrations rise gradually to peak 6 to 8h after administration.Summary. Metoprolol is absorbed over a large part of the intestine and over 95% of an oral therapeutic dose is generally recovered in the urine as unchanged drug and metabolites. Presystemic elimination accounts for about 50% degradation of acutely administered oral doses.


Side Effects

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
