Perindopril is a medication that belongs to a class of medications known as an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor.
Amlodipine belongs to a class of medications known as "calcium channel blockers."
One tablet of this product replaces two separate products of perindopril and amlodipine.
This combination of active ingredients works by widening the blood vessels making it easier for your heart to pump blood through them. This medication is used for the following indications: 
To treat high blood pressure. 
To reduce the risk of heart disease, such as heart attack, in patients with coronary artery disease.

If you suffer from severe low blood pressure. 
If you have unstable angina (chest pain or discomfort that lasts for more than a few minutes or occurs at rest and may not decrease with medication).
