Exforge is a tablet you take for hypertension, also known as high blood pressure. It contains two different active ingredients to bring your blood pressure down, amlodipine and valsartan. Itโs a strong treatment and you only have to take it once a day for it to be effective.
If amlodipine or valsartan alone arenโt effective enough to combat your hypertension, the combination tablet might be right for you. Itโs stronger than either of its ingredients used alone.
Exforge has two active ingredients, amlodipine and valsartan. They both target hypertension, but they do it in different ways. Amlodipine is a type of medication known as a calcium channel blocker. It blocks calcium from entering the cells of the heart and arteries. Since too much calcium in the myocardium (the muscle layer of the heart) and arteries leads them to constrict and raises blood pressure, Amlodipine is effective for hypertension.
Valsartan is the other active ingredient in Exforge. Itโs a type of medication called an angiotensin-II receptor antagonist. This means it blocks a molecule called angiotensin II, which makes your blood vessels tighter. So Valsartan helps to open up your blood vessels, decreasing the pressure on your heart. Together, these two drugs make Exforge a potent treatment for hypertension.
Exforge tablets come in three different dosages. The tablet with the lowest dosage contains 5 mg of valsartan and 80 mg of amlodipine. Thereโs another one with 5mg of valsartan and 160mg of amlodipine. Thereโs also a larger dose with 10mg of valsartan and 160mg of amlodipine. You should only take the dose thatโs prescribed by our clinician.

Always take your medication as directed by our clinician. If youโre unsure about anything, read the patient information leaflet and ask our prescriber. You just need to log into your account and send us a message.
Exforge starts working in your system immediately, but itโll take some time to show its full effects. It starts reducing hypertension within a couple of hours. After a month, Exforge will have reached its maximum impact in reducing your blood pressure. Exforge is a long-term medication, so you shouldnโt stop taking it suddenly. If you feel your dose of Exforge isnโt working for you, talk to our clinician.
Donโt take more Exforge than youโre prescribed. If you accidentally take too many, you should seek medical attention immediately. If you forget to take Exforge, take it as soon as you remember. If itโs almost time for your next dose, just skip it and take your medication normally from then on. Donโt take two doses at once to make up for a missed dose.
