Amlodipine is a peripheral arterial vasidilator that acts directly on vascular muscle to cause reduction in peripheral vascular resistance and reduction in blood pressure

Amlodipone reduces the total peripheral resistance against which the heart works and reduces the rate pressure product, and thus myocardial oxygen demand,at any given level of exercise.

Studies has been demonstrated to block constriction and restore blood flow in coronary arteries and arterioles in response to calcium,potassium epinephrine and thromboxane.

Amlodipine belongs to a class of drugs called calcium channel blockers,it works by entering in certain tissues and arteries and this makes it easier for them to relax,so blood can flow easily to your heart.This in turn helps lower your blood pressure and reduces risks of heart attack or stroke.
