Lercandipine 20 mg awfull side effects
the best way to reduce your blood pressure - I’m sure you know this already - is through diet and exercise. There is a lot of information on the website of Blood Pressure UK, the charity. If a combination of your medication along with a good diet and exercise (and no smoking) isn’t bringing your blood pressure down then it would be a good idea to talk to your doctor.
Or, if this is easier, have a telephone consultation with the pharmacist attached to your doctor’s group of surgeries (your receptionist can advise you). Whoever you speak to, have ready your height and weight and a series of recent blood pressure readings so that they can get a good picture of you.
I couldnt get on with 20 mg of lercanidipine . I can tollerate 10 but no more. I also take ramipril. Go back to your gp as there are many other meds to try until you find one that suits you . Best wishes
