部分中文Caduet处方资料（仅供参考）

    治疗高血压症和血胆脂醇过多的复方制剂Caduet，该药为片剂，含有苯磺酸氨氯地平和阿伐他汀钙两种成分。
    辉瑞抗高血压药Norvasc的主要成分即为苯磺酸氨氯地平，而其用于治疗血胆脂醇过多症治疗药Lipitor的主要成分即为阿伐他汀钙。
    Caduet囊括了上述极为常用的两种药物成分，可同时用于治疗这两种病症，从而有望增强患者对药物的依从度。
    开发阶段：2004年1月获得批准（美国，适应症包括高血压、慢性稳定性心绞痛、血管痉挛性心绞痛（或称变异性心绞痛）、各种家族性或非家族性血脂异常）
    简介：CADUET® (苯磺酸氨氯地平+阿托伐他汀钙) 包含长效钙通道阻断剂苯磺酸氨氯地平和合成的降血脂药物阿托伐他汀钙。苯磺酸氨氯地平的化学名为3-Ethyl-5-methyl(±)-2-[(2-aminoethoxy)methyl]-4-(o-chlorophenyl)-1,4-dihydro-6-methyl-3,5-pyridinedicarboxylate, monobenzenesulphonate；阿托伐他汀钙的化学名为：[R-(R*,R*)] -2-(4-fluorophenyl)-ß,-dihydroxy-5-(1-methylethyl)-3-phenyl-4-[(phenylamino)carbonyl]-1H-pyrrole-1-heptanoic acid, calcium salt (2:1) trihydrate。
    CADUET片除了包含上述两种活性成分外，还含有碳酸钙、croscarmellose sodium、微晶纤维素、pregelatinized starch、聚山梨醇酯80、hydroxypropyl cellulose、纯水、二氧化硅胶、硬脂酸镁等辅料。CADUET片有多种规格，包括5mg/10mg、5mg/20mg、5mg/40mg、5mg/80mg、10mg/10mg、10mg/20mg、10mg/40mg、10mg/80mg（前为氨氯地平，后为阿托伐他汀）8个规格。
    口服CADUET后，血浆氨氯地平的峰值在服药后6-12小时出现，阿托伐他汀的峰值在1-2小时后出现。服用CADUET后两种活性成分的生物利用度和这两种成分分开服用并没有显著的差异。CADUET 中氨氯地平的生物利用度并不受进食的影响。进食可以降低CADUET 中的阿托伐他汀的吸收率和吸收程度（分别降低32%和11%），但和阿托伐他汀单独服用的降低程度是一样的。另外，进食与否对LDL-C 的降低并没有影响。
    在一项双盲、安慰剂对照试验中，总共有1660名合并高血压和高血脂患者随机接受了氨氯地平/阿托伐他汀联合治疗（共有8个剂量组：5/10、10/10、5/20、10/20、5/40、10/40、5/80、10/80mg）、氨氯地平单独治疗(5mg或10mg)、阿托伐他汀单独治疗（10 mg、20 mg、40 mg或80 mg）或安慰剂治疗。除了合并有高血压和高血脂，15%的病人还有糖尿病，22%的患者吸烟，14%的患者有心血管病家族史。在治疗8周后，8个剂量的联合治疗组患者都出现了显著的、剂量依赖性的收缩压、舒张压和LDL-C 的降低。和两种活性成分单独服用时对上述参数的影响没有显著的差异。
 
Caduet
Generic Name: amlodipine and atorvastatin (am LOE di peen and a TORE va sta tin)
Brand Names: Caduet

What is Caduet?
Caduet contains a combination of atorvastatin and amlodipine. Atorvastatin is in a group of drugs called HMG CoA reductase inhibitors, or "statins." Atorvastatin blocks the production of cholesterol (a type of fat) in the body.

Amlodipine is in a group of drugs called calcium channel blockers. Amlodipine relaxes the blood vessels, improving blood flow and making it easier for the heart to pump.

Caduet is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) or chest pain (angina) that occurs with high cholesterol or triglyceride levels.

Caduet may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.

--------------------------------------------------------

Important information about Caduet
Caduet can harm an unborn baby or cause birth defects. Do not use this medication if you are pregnant. You should not use Caduet if you are allergic to amlodipine (Norvasc) or atorvastatin (Lipitor), if you have liver disease, or if you are pregnant or breast-feeding.

Before taking Caduet, tell your doctor if you have liver problems, heart disease, congestive heart failure, a serious illness or infection, or if you are taking other heart or blood pressure medications.

In rare cases, atorvastatin can cause a condition that results in the breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue, leading to kidney failure. Call your doctor right away if you have muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness especially if you also have fever, nausea or vomiting, and dark colored urine.

Caduet is only part of a complete program of treatment that also includes diet, exercise, and weight control. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely.

Avoid drinking alcohol. It may increase your risk of liver damage. Alcohol can also further lower blood pressure and can increase some of the side effects of amlodipine and atorvastatin. Caduet may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be alert.

If you are being treated for high blood pressure, keep using this medication even if you feel fine. High blood pressure often has no symptoms.
