General Actions (Not specific medical benefits for the user)
| Core Action | Mechanism |
| Lowers Blood Pressure | Amlodipine selectively blocks L-type calcium channels in the smooth muscle of the blood vessel walls, causing vasodilation (relaxation and widening of the arteries), which in turn reduces peripheral resistance and lowers blood pressure. |
| Relieves Angina (Chest Pain) | By dilating coronary arteries, it increases the oxygen supply to the heart muscle. By reducing systemic resistance, it decreases the workload on the heart, thus reducing the frequency and severity of angina attacks. |
| Provides $24\text{ Hour}$ Control | Amlodipine has a very long half-life, allowing for once-daily dosing that provides sustained, $24\text{ hour}$ control of blood pressure and angina symptoms. |
| Protects the Heart | As part of a treatment regimen, controlling blood pressure and heart workload reduces the long-term risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems. |
