drug reactions
I'm now taking levothyroxine and liothyronine for hypothyroidism, and amlodipine and atenolol for blood pressure. Any advice on how to take it etc?

Amlodipine
I am on 10mg of Amlodipine plus another type of drug. The Amlodipine makes me nauseous but the combo is effective in controlling my BP. Does anyone know if you can split the Amlodipine dosage 5mg in morning and 5mg in evening and whether this helps symptoms or not? In the UK, trying to make an appointment

wrong tablets
I have just taken my husbands tablets by mistake. I should have taken Entresto, Bisoprolol, and edixaban. Instead I have taken 5mg Amlodipine, 20mg atorvastatin and tamsulosin hydrochloride. Doctors closed holiday weekend as is Blood Failure clinic. What should I do?

Update on meds.
Hi, Finally, off the Bisoprolol (great to feel energetic again). Now taking Nebivolol (1,25 mg ) per day….This particular BB is stabilising my heart rate between low to mid 60’s Amlodipine (5mg) for BP which is stabilising around 122/73 At the moment, all is well. Fingers crossed 🤞 it continues…

High blood pressure medication and fibro
Hi all hope everyone is OK today. The gp has decided I need blood pressure tablets , I have been on them 2 weeks and feel awful. I had a cold but that's gone, this is like a really really bad flare up. I didn't feel ill with hbp and I never go near the gp. The consultant had requested 6monthly blood

Getting meds right after quadruple bypass
Hi everyone, I had quadruple bypass on 25th July, home 5 days after, no major issues other than a bit of a stubborn infection in lower chest wound that took 3 lots of antibiotics to clear up and heal. I had my meds tweaked after first consultation back at hospital , bisoprolol was reduced from 3.75mg

Down the rabbit hole I go.... the follow up to my journey
This is the follow up to my long post about what has been happening to me. A quick review. I was told after I did the whole evaluation progress in 2020-21 that I was overweight, BMI too high, and that I had an abnormal cardiac result from the nuclear test that I had done. I had a report or 6% ischemia

Advice Please
I was diagnosed with AFib in July after going to the GP with concerns about feeling breathless, tiring easily and swollen ankles. I had a TIA three years ago. I was taken off clopidogrel and amlodipine and prescribed Bisoprolol and Rivaroxaban. The dose of Bisoprolol was increased from 3.75mg to 10mg

Angina
Hi, I have angina since I had my heart attack about 18 months ago. This heat is making the angina worse and I also have insomnia. I had a hospital report from my cardiac MRI and will need further hospital tests in the next few weeks. I cope with GTN spray and Amlodipine as the heat affects my blood

propranolol for SVT
I had an ablation two years ago for Afib and so far it is holding. I also have SVT, PVC and PAC. I’m on olmesartan and amlodipine for BP control. I was put on 12.5 mg carvedilol twice daily for rate control which made me feel breathless and exhausted . Changed to Metaprolol which was worse, so put back
