Angicam LT 50 mg/5 mg Tablet is a prescription medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). It combines two active ingredients: Losartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker (CCB). Both medicines work in different ways to relax blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily. This helps reduce blood pressure and improves the heart’s ability to pump blood efficiently. By lowering high blood pressure, Angicam LT helps reduce the risk of serious health problems like heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage. It is often prescribed when blood pressure is not controlled by one medicine alone.

How Angicam LT Tablet works
Angicam LT Tablet combines Losartan and Amlodipine, two medicines that lower blood pressure through different mechanisms. Losartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a substance that tightens blood vessels. This helps blood vessels stay relaxed and open. Amlodipine blocks calcium from entering blood vessel walls, further relaxing the arteries. Together, these actions reduce resistance in the blood vessels and lower the force your heart needs to pump. This not only brings down blood pressure but also improves oxygen and nutrient delivery across the body. The heart works more efficiently and with less strain. As a result, the risk of heart-related complications is reduced. Regular use as prescribed is important for sustained benefit. Stopping the medicine suddenly may worsen your condition or cause blood pressure to rise again. Taking the tablet at the same time daily, with or without food, ensures consistent control of blood pressure.
