S-amlodipine Besylate Hemi pentahydrate also known as Levamlodipine Besylate Hemi pentahydrate. It is a pharmacologically active enantiomer of amlodipine besylate S-Amlodipine besylate hemipentahydrate is used in the treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain) and Hypertension (high blood pressure).
S-Amlodipine besylate hemipentahydrate is a dihydropyridine group of calcium channel blocker. In high blood pressure, it normalizes the blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels to reduce the pressure on them, thereby improving the blood flow in the body. The enhanced blood flow in the body further relaxes the heart muscles by reducing the workload on the heart. It also improves the oxygen flow in the body, thereby, preventing any heart-related chest pain.
