Weight loss with Felodipine anyone ?

I have now been on Felodipine 2.5mg for 10 days I have reduced appetite and have lost 4 pounds. I am usually 7st 10lbs and really don't want to lose any weight at all. I have IBS and had a bad flare up with diahorrea but didn't notice any weight loss at that point. Have an appointment with GP 26th but getting really worried now. I notice online it mentions both sudden weight gain or loss with Felodipine. As ever grateful for any help. Thanks !

hmmmm… I’d say have a word with your doc or the pharmacist at the surgery, sounds a bit off to me.
