Following an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), patients are at significant risk of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), a leading cause of severe disability and mortality. The standard of care to mitigate this risk involves a specific CCB: Nimodipine.

Yes, amlodipine and telmisartan are commonly prescribed together, often available as a single-pill combination, for the effective treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). Research shows that combining an angiotensin II receptor blocker (telmisartan) with a calcium channel blocker (amlodipine) can offer superior blood pressure control compared to either medication alone.

Data from 2021–2023 shows that nearly half of adults in the U.S. (47.7%) have hypertension [1.6.1]. For many, managing this requires medication, which raises the question: **what kind of drug is Azor** and how does it fit into treatment plans? [1.2.1, 1.6.1]
