Amlodipine benazepril is indicated for the treatment of hypertension in patients not adequately controlled with either agent and is taken once daily. Dr Reddy’s product is available in bottles of 100 count capsules.
Amlodipine/Benazepril is a combination of 2 blood pressure medicines, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and a calcium channel blocker. It works by helping your blood vessels relax (dilate) and lower blood pressure.
Earlier, in September 2009, Dr Reddy’s had entered into a patent settlement with Novartis on Amlodipine benazepril stipulating the dismissal of the lawsuits in the US. The FDA granted an approval of Dr Reddy’s ANDA for Amlodipine benazepril on April 15, 2010.
