onset of effect is within 8 hours. The half-life of amlodipine is about 30-50 hours, meaning that “steady state” occurs between 4 and 10 days after starting therapy.
steady state concentration means when the overall intake of drugs is in dynamic equilibrium with its elimination.
generally any drug reaches a steady state concentration with consistent dosing after 3 to 5 half-lives.
