2) Dosage & Administration
The recommended dose is one tablet per day, with water. Levosartan can be used with or without food. Individual dose titration with the components(i.e. amlodipine and valsartan) is recommended before changing to the fixed dose combination. When clinically appropriate, direct change from monotherapy to the fixed-dose combination may be considered.

2.5/80mg may be administered in patient s whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with s-amlodipine 2.5mg(amlodipine 5mg) or valsartan 80mg alone.
2.5/160mg may be administered in patient s whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with s-amlodipine 2.5mg(amlodipine 5mg) or valsartan 160mg alone.

For convenience, patients receiving valsartan and amlodipine from separate tablets/capsules maybe switched to Levosartan containing the same component dose.
