Overview

Norvasc 10mg Tablet contains Amlodipine 10mg (as amlodipine besylate) and is available as a tablet. It is classified as a prescription medicine and may only be obtained with a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner.

Only product, safety and handling information is published here. Anything beyond that is explained to you directly by your doctor or pharmacist as part of your consultation.

DoctorOnCall is a licensed online pharmacy. Orders for Norvasc 10mg Tablet are processed only after a doctor has assessed your suitability and issued a prescription, and every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is sent out.

Directions for Use

Take Norvasc 10mg once daily, at approximately the same time each day, with or without food, and swallow the tablet whole with water. This strength is usually reached by up-titration from a lower dose under medical supervision, so do not switch to the 10mg strength on your own without your doctor’s specific instruction.

Dosage

10mg once daily is the maximum recommended dose of amlodipine for most adults, typically prescribed after a doctor has reviewed the patient’s response to the 5mg dose and determined that a higher strength is needed for adequate blood pressure or angina control. Because dose-related side effects such as ankle swelling tend to be more noticeable at this higher strength, regular follow-up is important, and any further adjustment should only be made by your prescribing doctor.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, and keep out of reach of children. Keep the tablets in their original packaging until ready for use.

Side Effects

  • Headache
  • Dizziness or lightheadedness
  • Swelling of the ankles or feet
  • Fatigue
  • Flushing (warmth or redness in face/skin)
  • Nausea

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to amlodipine or other dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers
  • Severe hypotension (very low blood pressure)
  • Severe aortic stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve)
  • Cardiogenic shock or haemodynamically unstable heart failure
  • Unstable angina, other than vasospastic angina, where amlodipine may still be used under specialist guidance

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Grapefruit juice can increase amlodipine blood levels in some individuals and is best avoided or limited, particularly at this higher strength
  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors, such as certain antifungals (ketoconazole) or antivirals, may increase amlodipine levels and the risk of side effects
  • Simvastatin doses above a certain limit should be avoided when combined with amlodipine due to an increased risk of muscle-related side effects
  • Other blood pressure medicines may have an additive blood-pressure-lowering effect, increasing the risk of hypotension
  • NSAIDs taken regularly may reduce the blood-pressure-lowering effect of amlodipine

Quick Tips

  • Take Norvasc 10mg at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood pressure or angina control
  • Monitor for ankle or foot swelling, which is more common at this higher strength, and report bothersome swelling to your doctor
  • Do not increase your own dose beyond what your doctor has prescribed
  • Limit or avoid grapefruit juice while on treatment
  • Attend follow-up appointments so your doctor can confirm this strength continues to be appropriate for you

  • Amlodipine besylate (equivalent to amlodipine 10mg) — dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker

  • Amlodipine 10mg (as amlodipine besylate)

Relevant Information

Norvasc 10mg represents the top of the standard amlodipine dosing range and is generally used only after a doctor has reviewed a patient’s response to a lower dose. Because dose-related effects such as ankle swelling are more common at this strength, patients on 10mg should maintain regular follow-up so their doctor can weigh continued benefit against tolerability over time.
