CADIVAST®
Active ingredient(s): amlodipine (as besilate) and atorvastatin (as calcium trihydrate)
Consumer Medicine Information (CMI)
This leaflet provides important information about taking
CADIVAST. You should also speak to your doctor or
pharmacist if you would like further information or if you
have any concerns or questions about taking CADIVAST.
1. Why am I taking CADIVAST?
CADIVAST contains the active ingredient amlodipine and
atorvastatin.
Amlodipine belongs to a group of medicines called calcium
channel blockers. They work by relaxing your blood vessels,
making it easier for your heart to pump blood around the
body and help increase the supply of blood and oxygen to
your heart. Calcium channel blockers do not change the
amount of calcium in your blood or bones.
Atorvastatin belongs to a group of medicines called statins.
It works by reducing the amount of cholesterol made by the
liver. It reduces the ‘bad’ cholesterol and can raise the ‘good’
cholesterol. Atorvastatin also helps to protect you from a
heart attack or stroke.
CADIVAST may be used alone, or in combination with other
medicines, to treat your condition.
CADIVAST is used to treat:
• high blood pressure and high cholesterol (fat in the
blood)
• angina (a certain type of chest pain)
• people who have high blood pressure and coronary
heart disease (CHD) or who are at risk of CHD (for
example, if they have diabetes, a history of stroke,
or small blood vessel disease). In these people,
CADIVAST is used to help reduce the risk of having a
heart attack or stroke.
Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why
this medicine has been prescribed for you.
Your doctor may have prescribed it for another reason.
This medicine is not addictive.
Use in children
There is not enough information to recommend the use of this
medicine for children.
Use in the elderly
If you are 65 years or older, you should be especially
careful while taking CADIVAST. Report any side effects
promptly to your doctor.
Some people in this age group may be more likely to
experience side effects such as swelling of the feet and
ankles, muscle cramps and dizziness.
What is high blood pressure?
There are usually no symptoms of high blood pressure
(hypertension). The only way of knowing that you have
hypertension is to have your blood pressure checked on a
regular basis. If high blood pressure is not treated it can lead
to serious health problems.
What is cholesterol?
Everyone has cholesterol in their blood. It is a type of blood
fat needed by the body for things such as building cell lining,
making bile acids (which help to digest food) and some
hormones. However, too much cholesterol can be a problem.
Cholesterol is present in many foods and is also made in your
body by the liver. If your body makes too much cholesterol
or you take too much cholesterol in your diet, then your level
becomes too high.
High cholesterol is more likely to occur with certain diseases
or if you have a family history of high cholesterol.
There are different types of cholesterol. LDL, or low-density
lipoprotein, is the ‘bad’ cholesterol that can block your blood
vessels. HDL, or high-density lipoprotein, is the ‘good’
cholesterol that is thought to remove the ‘bad’ cholesterol
from the blood vessels.
When you have high levels of ‘bad’ cholesterol in your blood,
it may begin to ‘stick’ to the inside of your blood vessels
instead of being carried to the parts of the body where it is
needed. Over time, this can form hard areas, also called
plaque, on the walls of your blood vessels, making it more
difficult for the blood to flow. Sometimes, the plaque can
detach from the vessel wall and float in the bloodstream; it
can then reach a smaller vessel and completely block it. This
blocking of your blood vessels can lead to several types of
blood vessel disease, heart attack, angina and stroke.
There is another type of blood fat called triglyceride that is
a source of energy. However, high levels of triglyceride can
be associated with a low level of ‘good’ cholesterol and may
increase your risk of heart disease.
In some patients, CADIVAST is used to treat high cholesterol
and high triglycerides together.
In most people, there are no symptoms of abnormal
cholesterol or triglyceride levels. Your doctor can measure
your levels with a simple blood test.
What is angina?
Angina is a pain or uncomfortable feeling in the chest,
often spreading to the arms or neck, and sometimes to the
shoulders and back. The pain of angina is due to a shortage
of oxygen to the heart. CADIVAST is used to treat chronic
angina.

How do I take CADIVAST?
How much to take
• CADIVAST is taken once a day.
• Your doctor will decide which strength is suitable for you.
This will depend on your blood pressure, cholesterol and
triglyceride levels.
• Your doctor may need to adjust your dose after your
blood pressure and the fat levels in your blood have
been checked. It is important that you keep your
appointments to have these tests done.
• If you do not understand the instructions on the bottle,
ask your doctor or pharmacist for help.
• Follow the instructions provided and use CADIVAST until
your doctor tells you to stop.
When to take CADIVAST
• Take your medicine at about the same time each day.
Taking it at the same time each day will have the best
effect. It will also help you remember when to take it.
• CADIVAST can be taken with or without food.
How to take CADIVAST
• Swallow the tablets whole with a full glass of water.
• Do not crush or chew the tablets.
• Take CADIVAST exactly as your doctor has prescribed.
• Follow all directions given to you by your doctor
or pharmacist carefully. They may differ from the
information contained in this leaflet.
• Your doctor may discuss with you the need to be on a
diet. Follow your agreed diet plan carefully.
How long to take CADIVAST
Take CADIVAST every day and continue taking it for as long
as your doctor tells you.
This medicine helps to lower cholesterol levels and blood
pressure and control the symptoms of angina but it does not
cure your condition.
It is important to keep taking your medicine even if you feel
well. If you stop taking CADIVAST, your blood pressure and
cholesterol levels may rise again.
If you forget to take CADIVAST
CADIVAST should be taken regularly at the same time each
day.
If you miss your dose at the usual time and it is less
than 12 hours before your next dose, skip the dose you
missed and take your next dose when you are meant to.
Otherwise, take it as soon as you remember, and then go
back to taking your medicine as you would normally.
Do not take a double dose to make up for the dose you
missed. This may increase the chance of you getting an
unwanted side effect.
If you are not sure what to do, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
If you have trouble remembering to take your medicine, ask
your pharmacist for some hints.
If you take too much CADIVAST
If you think that you or anyone else may have taken too much
CADIVAST, urgent medical attention may be needed.
You should immediately:
• phone the Poisons Information Centre
(Australia telephone 13 11 26) for advice, or
• contact your doctor, or
• go to the Emergency Department at your nearest hospital.
You should do this even if there are no signs of
discomfort or poisoning.
Keep telephone numbers of these facilities handy.
Symptoms of an overdose may include dizzy, lightheaded or
faint and have an irregular heartbeat.
What should I know while taking CADIVAST?
Things you should do
• If you are about to be started on any new medicine, remind your doctor and pharmacist that you are taking CADIVAST.
• If you are going to have surgery, tell the surgeon or
anaesthetist that you are taking this medicine.
It may affect other medicines used during surgery.
• If you are about to have any blood tests, tell your doctor
that you are taking this medicine. It may interfere with the
results of some tests.
• Keep all of your doctor’s appointments so that your
progress can be checked.
• Your cholesterol and triglyceride levels and your liver
function tests need to be checked regularly while you are
taking this medicine.
• A regular blood test to check an enzyme called creatine
kinase (CK) may be needed. CK in your blood can rise
after muscle injury which can be caused by medicines
used to treat cholesterol or triglycerides, such as CADIVAST.
CADIVAST®
This helps to make sure that CADIVAST is working and to
avoid some possible side-effects.
• Your blood pressure may also be checked regularly.
Call your doctor straight away if you:
• become pregnant while taking this medicine.
Remind any doctor, dentist or pharmacist you visit that you
are taking CADIVAST.
Things you should not do
• Do not take CADIVAST to treat any other complaints
unless your doctor tells you to.
• Do not give your medicine to anyone else, even if they
have the same condition as you.
• Do not stop taking your medicine or lower the dosage
without checking with your doctor.
If you stop taking it suddenly, your condition may worsen
or you may have unwanted side effects.
Things to be careful of
• Avoid eating large quantities of grapefruit or drinking
large quantities of grapefruit juice.
Grapefruit juice contains one or more components
that alter the metabolism of some medicines, including
CADIVAST.
Drinking very large quantities (over 1.2 litres) of grapefruit
juice each day while taking CADIVAST increases your
chance of getting side effects.
• If you feel light-headed, dizzy or faint when getting out of
bed or standing up, get up slowly.
Standing up slowly, especially when you get up from bed
or chairs, will help your body get used to the change in
position and blood pressure. If this problem continues or
gets worse, talk to your doctor.
Driving or using machines
Be careful before you drive or use any machines or tools
until you know how CADIVAST affects you.
CADIVAST may cause dizziness or drowsiness in some
people and affect alertness.
If you have any of these symptoms, do not drive, operate
machinery or do anything else that could be dangerous.
Drinking alcohol
Avoid drinking large quantities of alcohol. Tell your
doctor if you drink alcohol.
Drinking large quantities of alcohol while taking CADIVAST
may increase your chance of getting liver problems.
Excessive alcohol intake can raise your cholesterol levels or
affect your liver function, which could increase the chance of
you getting unwanted side effects.
Your doctor may discuss with you whether you should reduce
the amount of alcohol you drink.
Lifestyle measures that help reduce heart disease risk
By following these simple measures, you can further
reduce the risk from heart disease.
• Quit smoking and avoid second-hand smoke. Smoking
increases the risk of you suffering from heart problems.
Your doctor may advise you to stop smoking.
• Limit alcohol intake.
• Enjoy healthy eating by:
o eating plenty of vegetables and fruit
o reducing your saturated fat intake (eat less fatty
meats, full fat dairy products, butter, coconut and
palm oils, most take-away foods, commercially
baked products)
o reducing your salt intake. Your doctor may advise you to watch the amount of salt in your diet. To reduce your salt intake, avoid using salt at the table or in cooking.
• Be active. Progress, over time, to at least 30 minutes of
moderate-intensity physical activity on 5 or more days
each week. Can be accumulated in shorter bouts of
10 minutes duration. If you have been prescribed anti
angina medicine, carry it with you when being physically active.
• Regular exercise can help lower your cholesterol levels
and blood pressure and can strengthen your heart. It is
important not to overdo it. Before commencing regular
exercise, you should consult your doctor who will suggest
the most suitable exercise for you. If you experience any
discomfort when exercising, see your doctor.
• Maintain a healthy weight. While you are taking
CADIVAST, you may need to follow a diet plan agreed to with your doctor. This may include measures to lose some weight.
• Discuss your lifestyle and lifestyle plans with your doctor.
• For more information and tools to improve your heart
health, call Heartline, the Heart Foundation’s national
telephone information service, on 1300 36 27 87 (local call cost).
Know warning signs of heart attack and what to do:
• Tightness, fullness, pressure, squeezing, heaviness or
pain in your chest, neck, jaw, throat, shoulders, arms or back.
• You may also have difficulty breathing, or have a cold
sweat or feel dizzy or light headed or feel like vomiting
(or actually vomit).
• If you have heart attack warning signs that are severe,
get worse or last for 10 minutes even if they are mild, call
triple zero (000). Every minute counts.
Looking after your medicine
• Keep your tablets in the pack until it is time to take them.
If you take the tablets out of the pack they may not keep well.
• Keep your tablets in a cool dry place where the
temperature stays below 25°C.
Follow the instructions in the carton on how to take care of
your medicine properly.
Store it in a cool dry place away from moisture, heat or
sunlight; for example, do not store it:
• in the bathroom or near a sink, or
• in the car or on window sills.
Heat and dampness can destroy some medicines.
Keep it where young children cannot reach it.
A locked cupboard at least one-and-a-half metres above the
ground is a good place to store medicines.
