Anaemia, blood pressure and Amlodipine
I am on 5 mg amlodipine daily for high blood pressure, and have been for more than a year. Since then my blood pressure has not been tested. It has become routine to take this repeat prescription, so I don't unfortunately know how high my BP is today. However, just recently I have experienced various

clopidogrel
hi everyone. Had TIA put on clopidogrel for platelets and 5mg Amlodipine for hypertension.. Has anyone had dizziness/spaced out feeling on either of these drugs ? Take them at breakfaast and symptoms start 1 hour after taking them. Thought I might take them at different times during the day.. Thanks

Fatigue
Does anyone else suffer with extreme tiredness even after sleeping well all night? I have felt tired all the time recently . I am 71 years old and have been in permanent AF for some years and chose not to go down the ablation route. I have been putting it down to the heat but not sure it is. I take

New to blood pressure medication.
I am new to this forum and have very recently been prescribed Amlodipine m5g for the first time. They are the Teva brand. I also take Levothyroxine and am allergic to the Teva brand. The coatings are the problem . I don't know if the coating is the same for their Amlodipine. What are alternative

weight gain?
I want to see anyones points of view about weight gain. I have discovered I have gained very little weight whilst on purely Levothyroxine. However I have become much ‘bigger’. My trousers are too tight, I am increasingly ungainly, my muscles are getting worse and even more problems getting exercise

amlodipine
my doctor wants to put me on Amlodipine. I have read it can make angina worse to begin with. I don't want to take it. What medications are other people taking for vaso spasm and microvascular angina?

Serious Question
I was advised I need thyroid replacement years back. I was active, healthy, walked 2 miles 3 x week. I was surprised , but trusted. I immediately felt like I was like someone on amphetamines. Finally after 4 3/4 yrs. I withdrew telling the MD. Most of the extreme complaints have gone or lessen. How much

viagra
I’m taking Felodipine for slightly raised BP and it’s working well . Unfortunately it’s causing some mild ED. I’ve tried other BP meds but can’t tolerate them. I had an ablation for AF nearly 12 months ago which has been successful. The urologist is suggesting viagra or similar. I’m worried it
