INDICES> Amlodipine availability in IRAN?
----------------------------------------------------

Greetings,

I have been asked by a physician regarding the availability of
amlodipine in
IRAN.  He has a patient who will be returning there and would like to
confirm this before prescribing it.
It appears to be available in Egypt (as Norvasc(R)); I have a call
into
Pfizer to see if they have any information.  Other resources
(Martindales,
Negwer) have not been helpful.
Does anybody know if amlodipine is available in Iran?  If so, what is
the
trade name?

Thanks for any information in advance,
