What is this? This is a blood-pressure tablet that mixes three medicines: amlodipine, valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide.

What's happening? The maker cannot make enough tablets right now, so some packs are not in stock.

Does this affect me? If you take this exact tablet in Austria, you may not find it at the pharmacy.

What should I do? Ask your pharmacist or doctor for another suitable tablet while supplies return.
