Amlodipine is in Lotrel. I would buy Benazepril(generic) and generic Norvasc(Amlodipine) and drop the Lotrel. Bad news ?

It's excellent news for Novartis because Exforge can launch early. Exforge is the combination of an ARB and amlodipine (Norvasc).

Like hydrochlorothiazide, every pharmaceutical company is going to come out with an amlodipine/product combination now. Norvasc is a great drug.
