Amlomed AT Tablet combines Amlodipine and Atenolol to control high blood pressure and help prevent angina-related chest pain. It is used when one medicine alone is not enough. Amlodipine relaxes the blood vessels while Atenolol slows the heart rate so the heart works with less strain. This also lowers the chance of future heart attack and stroke. Most people feel no daily change because high blood pressure often has no clear signs. Taking it regularly with a healthy diet and some activity keeps the pressure steadier over time.
