Do Norvasc And Amlodipine Besylate Have The Same Composition?
Hello, I was looking at the pictures of the blood pressure medication pictures and I am taking 5mg of Amlodipine. That pill is the octagon shape and when looking the pictures it stated Norvasc. I just received another refill of the same and this one states Amlodipine Besylate and the pill is round. Should I be concern? Are they the same medications?
Hi ! Norvasc and Amlodipine besylate are the same chemicals. Norvasc is one of the brands of the salt Amlodipine besylate.You can consume the refill without worry. All the best!
