Meds side effects

Hello, I'm about a month in of taking Ramipril and Amlodipine both 10mg and my question is do the side effects come and go? When I first started I had dizziness and heavy arms which passed after a couple of weeks but seem to have come back. Wonder if this is normal or not really.

Thank you 😊

I’d say the side effects to start with would be normal as your body gets used to the medication, but that I would ask the pharmacist his/her opinion- in the UK at any rate pharmacists are more clued up than docs for this sort of thing
