Logimax – Felodipine / Metoprolol tartrate uses, dose and side effects
Logimax and Logimax forte are blood pressure lowering drugs that consist of a combination of two active substances, felodipine and metoprolol . The modes of action of the two substances complement each other. Felodipine lowers blood pressure by relaxing the tense muscle cells of the small blood vessels (arteries) and dilating the blood vessels so that the blood can pass more easily. Metoprolol lowers blood pressure by reducing the heart rate, which then pumps out less blood per minute. In this way, Logimax and Logimax forte provide a more pronounced blood pressure lowering effect than with the respective active substance separately. Logimax and Logimax forte is only used when treatment with the substances alone has not had an effect.
