Rx Amlodipine 2.5 mg x 90 Tablets
Amlodipine is a prescription medication used in dogs and cats for the management of high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain forms of heart disease. It belongs to a class of drugs known as calcium channel blockers, which work by relaxing blood vessels, lowering blood pressure, and reducing strain on the heart.
