Amlodipine high blood pressure drug
Amlodipine high blood pressure drug, molecular model. This drug, marketed as Istin, is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina pectoris (heart pain). It is a calcium channel blocker, which prevent calcium ions from entering muscle cells when excited, leading to weaker muscle contraction. This dilates blood vessels and reduces the force of contraction of the heart. In this molecule, atoms are shown as spheres and are colour coded: carbon is yellow, oxygen is red, hydrogen is white, nitrogen is blue and chlorine is green

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the molecular model of Amlodipine, a highly effective drug used to combat high blood pressure and angina pectoris. Marketed as Istin, this medication belongs to the class of calcium channel blockers that work by preventing calcium ions from entering muscle cells when excited. This mechanism leads to weaker muscle contractions, resulting in the dilation of blood vessels and reduced force of heart contraction. The intricate structure depicted in this artwork highlights various atoms represented as spheres with distinct colors: carbon (yellow), oxygen (red), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue), and chlorine (green). The composition beautifully captures the complexity and precision involved in pharmaceutical chemistry. With its biochemistry expertise, Amlodipine plays a vital role in managing hypertension and relieving heart pain caused by angina pectoris. Its pharmacological properties make it an essential tool for healthcare professionals worldwide. This visually striking image serves as a reminder of the remarkable advancements made in medical science. It represents not only the ingenuity behind developing life-saving drugs but also emphasizes the importance of understanding molecular structures for effective treatment strategies. Science Photo Library has once again provided us with an insightful glimpse into our world's scientific wonders through their exceptional computer-generated artwork.
