What is Alotendin?

Alotendin is a prescription medication containing bisoprolol and amlodipine. It's a combination therapy used to treat high blood pressure (arterial hypertension). Alotendin can also be used as a replacement therapy if your blood pressure has been effectively managed by taking amlodipine and bisoprolol separately at the same dosages.

How Alotendin Works:

• Bisoprolol: A beta-blocker that slows down the heart rate and reduces the force of the heart's contractions, resulting in lower blood pressure.
