amlodipine and Fatty Liver

amlodipine has been researched along with Fatty Liver in 6 studies

Amlodipine: A long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker. It is effective in the treatment of ANGINA PECTORIS and HYPERTENSION.
amlodipine : A fully substituted dialkyl 1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate derivative, which is used for the treatment of hypertension, chronic stable angina and confirmed or suspected vasospastic angina.

Fatty Liver: Lipid infiltration of the hepatic parenchymal cells resulting in a yellow-colored liver. The abnormal lipid accumulation is usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES, either as a single large droplet or multiple small droplets. Fatty liver is caused by an imbalance in the metabolism of FATTY ACIDS.

" The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of losartan or amlodipine alone or combined with simvastatin on hepatic steatosis degree, and on insulin sensitivity in normocholesterolemic, hypertensive patients with nonalcoholic hepatic steatosis."5.16Effects of losartan and amlodipine alone or combined with simvastatin in hypertensive patients with nonalcoholic hepatic steatosis. ( Derosa, G; Fogari, R; Lazzari, P; Maffioli, P; Mugellini, A; Zoppi, A, 2012)
