Caduet (Norvasc and Lipitor Combination)Caduet is a combination of 2 drugs: amlodipine (Norvasc) and atorvastatin (Lipitor). Caduet is used in the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure) and lowering blood cholesterol levels. Amlodipine belongs to the group of calcium channel blockers. They act by relaxing the smooth muscles in the blood vessels which results in an easier flow of blood in the vessels along with less load on the heart. This effect lowers the blood pressure thus preventing strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.Atorvastatin belongs to “statins” group of drugs. It is known to lower the “bad” cholesterols, which are low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and triglycerides and increases the levels of “good” cholesterol, i.e., high-density lipoproteins (HDL) by lowering the production of cholesterol made by the liver. This decreases the risk of heart attacks.You can buy Caduet from Canada Pharmacy and get it delivered to your house.
