Ancor A

Bisoprolol Fumarate + Amlodipine

Indications

Ancor A is indicated for the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension in adults.

Ancor A is a combination of a selective b1 -blocker, Bisoprolol, and a calcium channel blocker, Amlodipine. Bisoprolol works by relaxing blood vessels and slowing heart rate to improve and decrease blood pressure. Amlodipine blocks the action of calcium on the heart and blood vessels. As a result, blood vessels are relaxed and the heart beats with less force. This lowers the blood pressure; abnormally fast heart beat and protects the heart following a heart attack.

Description

Ancor A is a combination of a selective b1 -blocker, Bisoprolol, and a calcium channel blocker, Amlodipine. Bisoprolol works by relaxing blood vessels and slowing heart rate to improve and decrease blood pressure. Amlodipine blocks the action of calcium on the heart and blood vessels. As a result, blood vessels are relaxed and the heart beats with less force. This lowers the blood pressure; abnormally fast heart beat and protects the heart following a heart attack. This combination allows to increase in the antihypertensive and anti-anginal efficacy by the complementary mechanism of actions of the two active compounds: Vasoselective effect of the calcium channel blocker Amlodipine (decrease of peripheral resistance) and cardio-selective beta-blocker Bisoprolol (decrease of cardiac output).

The recommended daily dose is one tablet in the morning with or without food. Treatment with Bisoprolol + Amlodipine (Ancor A) combination must not be stopped abruptly. Gradual reduction of the daily dose is recommended.
