what is the side effects of taking Vamlo 5mg, Doctor has advised to replace Vamlo with Aplaket 250mg, as the previous causes abdorminal pain ## HI, Khor! Vamlo contains the active ingredient Amlodipine and yes, it can cause abdominal pain in some people that take it. Aplaket contains the active ingredient Ticlopidine, it's used to help prevent blood clotting, so it doesn't serve the same purpose as the Vamlo. Are you certain that's the one your doctor said to take? What are you taking it to treat? ## Doctor replaces vamlo with aplaket, stating that vamlo can cause abdominal pain. So I thought they serves the same purpose

May I know if Vamlo 5mg (which I can buy in my area) is a good replacement for Stamlo 5mg (which I cant get now)? Thanks much ## Yes, they contain the exact same active ingredient, which is Amlodipine, so even though it is sold under a different name, you would still be taking the same medication, just made by a different company. Amlodipine is most commonly used to help lower high blood pressure. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and dry mouth. Read more: Do you have any other questions?
