Cilnidipine 10mg. + Metorprolol Succinate 47.5mg. Eq. to Metoprolol Tartrate 50mg.(SR) (BILAYER)
Cilnidipine 10mg + Metoprolol Succinate 47.5mg Eq. to Metoprolol Tartrate 50mg (SR) (BILAYER) is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and certain heart conditions.
Cilnidipine (10mg) is a calcium channel blocker that works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, which helps lower blood pressure. It also blocks norepinephrine receptors, further reducing vascular resistance and improving blood flow.
Metoprolol Succinate (47.5mg), which is equivalent to Metoprolol Tartrate 50mg, is a beta-blocker that reduces heart rate and the force of the heart’s contractions, which lowers blood pressure and reduces the heart’s workload.
The bilayer formulation means that the medication is designed to release the drugs at different rates, providing both immediate and sustained effects to maintain a consistent blood pressure control over time.
