Posso prendere Amlodipina e Paracetamolo insieme?

You can take these medicines together as prescribed. Amlodipine e paracetamolo are processed by different pathways in the body and do not interfere with how the other works.

Amlodipine works by relaxing blood vessels to lower blood pressure, while paracetamol works on the central nervous system to reduce pain and fever.

Always follow the dosage instructions on the packaging or as advised by your doctor or pharmacist.

Precauzioni importanti

Malattia epatica o consumo eccessivo di alcol

Il paracetamolo viene metabolizzato dal fegato. Se hai problemi al fegato o consumi grandi quantità di alcol, sei a un rischio molto più elevato di danni epatici fatali anche a dosi standard. Non superare mai la dose massima di 8 compresse (4g) in 24 ore.

Severe heart disease (aortic stenosis)

Amlodipine can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure if you have severe narrowing of the aortic heart valve (stenosi aortica), which may lead to fainting or heart failure.

Succo di pompelmo

Grapefruit juice can increase the amount of amlodipine in your blood. This may cause your blood pressure to drop too low and increase the risk of side effects like headaches or swollen ankles.

While a small glass is unlikely to cause problems for most people, it is best to avoid large amounts of grapefruit juice while taking this medicine.

Alcol

You can usually drink alcohol in moderation while taking these medicines. However, for amlodipine, alcohol can increase the blood-pressure lowering effect, which might make you feel dizzy or lightheaded.

For paracetamol, chronic heavy drinking increases the risk of liver damage.
