Amlip AT Tablet brings together Amlodipine 5 mg and Atenolol 50 mg to manage high blood pressure and help with angina-related chest pain. Doctors use it when one medicine is not enough to keep the pressure under control. It relaxes the blood vessels and slows the heart rate so the heart works with less effort. This also cuts the risk of heart attack and stroke over time. Most people feel no daily difference because high blood pressure often stays quiet. Taking it every day with simple lifestyle changes works best.
