Brief Answer:
can be used separately or exforge
Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Azor is a combination of amlodipine (a calcium channel blocker) and olmesartan
(in the drug family ARB).
You can use them separately or consider other combinations
Exforge- a combination of valsartan (also in the ARB family of drugs) and amlodipine.
The other ARB are micardis, atacand. These can be found on their own or with diuretics.
The combination of ARB and a diuretic is also good for blood pressure control.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
