How Amlodipine Besylate + Benazepril works?

Amlodipine Besylate works by inhibiting the movement of calcium ions via L type calcium channels into the vascular tissues and cardiac muscle cells. By restraining the entry of calcium channels, patients can decrease the contractility of arterial smooth muscles and causes vasodilation. It leads to relaxation of blood vessels which circulate the blood flow properly and reduces the overall blood pressure. While, Benazepril is an ACE (Angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitor that also dilates blood vessels and prevents body from retaining water.  It reduces the post heart attack damage by delivering sufficient amount of oxygen. In case of kidney problems, it improves the blood supply in the kidney’s blood carrying vessels and lowers down the chance of getting hypertension and post diabetes effects.
