Hi, I have tried a few BP drugs and had side effects. I now refused to take anything as my life was miserable. I don't have any angina, I don't have heart problems and my BP isn't high away from doctors. I monitor it daily. The doctor machine fell apart and was too small cuff, I had to hold in place. It was rubbish.

Told one doctor many to choose from.

Told doctor on Wednesday only this one available for me. Amlodipine.

I have never seen such a list of common side effects. I am very worried. I have decided not to take.

I have anxiety which they won't treat. I am on some herbal and medical for other things. I don't want to take this dangerous drug.

I am on Amlodipine & I have no side effects. Remember many people don't have side effects at all.
