Description
Amlodipine Besylate (generic for Norvasc) is a veterinary-prescribed calcium channel blocker used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and support heart health in dogs and cats. By relaxing blood vessel walls and reducing vascular resistance, it effectively lowers systemic blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart. It is especially beneficial in cats with kidney disease, where hypertension is common, and is often prescribed to treat congestive heart failure in dogs as part of a broader cardiovascular management plan. Available in 2.5 mg and 5 mg tablet strengths, Amlodipine is a key part of long-term blood pressure control in pets.Key Benefits

How It Works
Amlodipine Besylate blocks calcium from entering the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels, causing them to relax and dilate. This lowers systemic blood pressure, improving circulation and decreasing the workload on the heart. It’s classified as a vasodilator and calcium channel blocker
