NORVASC® is a type of medicine called a long-acting
calcium channel blocker (CCB). NORVASC is used to treat high blood pressure
(also called “hypertension,” “high-per-TEN-shun.”) It is also used to
treat a type of chest pain called angina. Angina is often a pain or pressure
in your chest that keeps coming back when part of your heart does not get
enough blood.
NORVASC works to relax your blood vessels. This lets your blood flow more
easily and helps lower your blood pressure. This means that blood pressure can
be lower, and angina pain can be reduced or controlled.
