Ramipril plus Amlodipine
Hi everyone I take Ramipril at bedtime, my blood preasure average after a week of readings for my GP was 151/97 so they have added in Amlodipine When would you suggest starting the Amlodipine? Was going tovtake in morning, but chemist has only just delivered. Would you take first dose now? And then earlier

amlodipine
I am just out of hospital having suffered an atypical heart attack (no pain) and have been put on Losartan to lower blood pressure. Unfortunately it is dropping diastolic pressure to much. Doctor wanted to try a ca channel blocker and I think I read on this site that some people were able to take amlodipine

Heartburn
Hi I am just wondering if anyone has any experience of heartburn on tablets for AF. I am on diltiazem 60mg and edexoban 60mg and Rampril. The edexoban I have been on for ages but was changed from Bisoprolol to Diltiazem and rampril from amlodipine in October. Thank You.

BP readings way out of kilter!
Newbie here so please be gentle if my query is in the re-inventing the wheel category. I've had elevated BP for many years and have been on Amlodipine and Irbesartan for 5+ years. I was called into my GP surgery yesterday morning for a BP check. The clinician checked it manually and got a reading

Amlodipine Fatigue
I was diagnosed with high BP in December 2023 when I had to go to A&E with sudden onset of a racing heart rate and increasing BP, 210/101 at its highest!! Enalapril finally brought it under control but after about a week I developed the side effect of a really bad, persistent cough. My GP decided to

excessive tiredness
atrial fibrillation diagnosed 2019. I Take Bisoprolol 2.5, eliquis, , Amlodipine and venlaxafine for anxiety. Tiredness seems to be getting worse which of the above could be causing it?

Amlodipine Unwanted Side Effects
Several years ago, I was put on my first ever medication for High Blood Pressure, AMLODIPINE. One of the unwanted side-effects of it was abnormal chest pain on the left side of the chest. I even had to get a GP to check me out, but he said that there was nothing wrong. Eventually, my own GP phased

Amlodipine and heart arrhythmias
My husband takes Amlodipine for mildly raised BP and for about 2 hours after taking it his heart performs badly. Until recently, it was merely a slightly raised rate and PAC's, but in the last week his rate is 50% higher than normal, massive amounts of PAC's and PVC's and Kardia shows 'possible AF

AF Meds
After an AF ablation had a pm fitted due to sluggish feeling. Have since been prescribed Edoxaban, Bisoprolol and Candesartan. I had issues with breathless and tight chest plus Lactic acid build up in hips, so they prescribed Amlodipine and Nicorandil thinking it must be Angina but i feel as bad

Microvessel angina or vasospastic disease
I had migraines for most of my adult life. They became a daily problem for me. In November of 2012 I started having heart pain which caused a heart attack and was misdiagnosed as having a classisc heart attack and was put on Beta blockers which exaserbated the problem. At the same time I was diagnosed

monitoring BP at home and it just gets higher and higher. I’m in such an anxious state now it seems pointless doing it? Anyone else?
Been on Candesartan and Amlodipine for over a year. Had a few dizzy spells so saw gp wondered if it was the Amlodipine but now think I’ve got anxiety about having high BP. Checking it at home is just making both worse!

Fed Up.
Hello again, very long time, no see. I will freely admit that a huge part of my absence has been pure denial. As 2024 begins, I realise I have been a prisoner of my health problems since late 2020, when it all really kicked off probably due in no small way to our good friend Covid, both mentally and

enzalutamide and amlodipine
"enzalutamide will decrease the effect of amlodipine by affecting hepatic/intestinal CYP3A4 metabolism "....i was prescribed amlodipine and noticed it was not effective in lowering blood pressure so this must be the reason. Would a different calcium channel blocker work?

Colonoscopy and pred
I'm having a colonoscopy on Thursday. I have been told to leave off the 2mg pred I take early morning until after the procedure (the appointment is for 10.30am). The same for all my other meds except amlodipine which I can still take. I think their reasoning is that I'm not allowed to eat anything after
