A calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels, lowering blood pressure.
A beta-blocker that slows the heart rate and reduces the force of heart contractions, also lowering blood pressure.
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure)
May be used in combination therapy when other medications alone haven't been effective enough.
Cilnidipine relaxes blood vessels by blocking calcium channels, leading to vasodilation and reduced peripheral resistance. Metoprolol reduces heart rate and contractility by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors, decreasing cardiac output. The combination provides a synergistic effect, leading to more effective blood pressure control.
