High BP, abdominal pain and sickness and UTI
I initially had bouts of anaemia and tiredness throughout the early 2000s and was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism around 2010. I was told that my excess weight would drop off me after being prescribed Levothyroxine. That didn't happen but I did get side effects and symptoms of an underactive thyroid

Hi, just to update on my recent angiogram which I had yesterday. Results were they are happy to continue with medication as no stents required at this time. Pressure wire test wasn’t done as happy with what showed up on screen. The consultant has increased my Amlodipine to 10 mg and bisoprolol to 2.5mg

Update on blood pressure medication.
My GP changed my blood pressure medication to Amlodipine last week and asked me to record my blood pressure twice a day for a week.I only lasted three days on the Amlodipine. Side effects for me were breathlessness, feeling nauseous and feeling totally drained. I was really hoping the amlodipine would

Amlodipine Side Effects
Hi. I've had tinnitus for 18 months. Started in the middle of the night during a stressful period in my life - redundancy from long term job (21 years). Originally only in right ear then gradually left too. I experience regular spikes which maybe stress related or reactive to sound. I've recently started

Candesartan cough?
Candesartan 4 mg was added to my amlodipine 5 mg a few months ago. When my BP was still high, the dosage was increased to 8 mg. I had no problems on the 4 mg, but after the increase I developed an irritating little dry cough. It felt the same as the one I had when on perindopril, except not as hacking

Ramapril and Candesartan help please.
I was prescribed Ramapril last year lowest dose and tolerated it really well. However when I saw my cardiologist in July my blood pressure was high and he increased the dosage to 2.5 mg twice a day. As well as hypertension I have mild CAD and moderate LVH. I started experiencing a vibrating sensation

I don't have high blood pressure and was told if I felt dizzy or faint to stop taking it as have moderate aortic stenosis. 6 hours after taking the second pill I had palpitations, irregular heart beats and my blood

Amlodipine
Hello everyone, I realise this may not be relevant on this site, but I’ve been struggling with palpitations and anxiety for a few months. I had put this down (see previous posts) to the adrenals not wanting to play ball after their nice long holiday, due to Pred, but it suddenly dawned on me that this

forgotten?
I am prescribed amlodipine and bisopherol for high blood pressure, one of each every day. Now I have forgotten whether I have taken them today or not. I wonder if it is better to take an extra dose or miss a dose. Iris x

The most common side effects include headaches, flushing, feeling tired and swollen ankles. These usually improve after a few days. Amlodipine can also be called amlodipine besilate, amlodipine maleate or amlodipine mesylate. I am sending this because it says most about the side effects of Amlodipine

Hello lovely people. I'm in a proper pickle at the moment, so would appreciate your views, comments or experiences. My blood pressure is, apparently, too high so was put on amlodipine 5mg. After the first couple of days, being catatonic, things resolved a bit but leaving me dizzy, unsteady on my feet
