Overview

Duopharma Covasc 10mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) presented as a tablet, with Amlodipine 10mg (as amlodipine besilate) as its active ingredient content.

This page is limited to product, safety and handling information, in line with Malaysian rules on prescription medicine information for the public. Your prescriber or pharmacist is the right source for anything beyond that, together with the leaflet inside the pack.

Through DoctorOnCall, this product is supplied after an online consultation with a licensed doctor and a valid prescription, and it is checked by a registered pharmacist before dispensing. Take it exactly as prescribed, and speak to your doctor before stopping, changing the dose, or starting any other medicine alongside it.

Directions for Use

Take Duopharma Covasc 10mg Tablet once daily, at about the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew it unless your pharmacist advises otherwise. Continue taking it regularly even if you feel well, as high blood pressure usually has no symptoms.

Dosage

The usual starting dose of Duopharma Covasc 10mg Tablet for adults is 5mg once daily, which your doctor may increase to a maximum of 10mg once daily depending on your blood pressure or angina response. Your doctor may start at a lower dose if you have liver impairment or are more sensitive to blood pressure medicines. Always take exactly as prescribed.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
