Amlodipine dose
I was wondering what benefits others are experiencing due to Amlodipine? I was started on Amlodipine 5mg in March this year. I was having regular check ups for blood pressure etc due to the possible side effects but I've been fine. No side effects whatsoever, but the medication doesn't seem to be doing

Raynaud's treatment
Has anyone with Raynaud's been prescribed Amlodipine? I would be interested to hear experiences. I have it sat in my cupboard but am cautious as I keep being told at every appointment i have low blood pressure and as far as I'm aware, this is also used to treat high blood pressure. I don't want to lower

Amlodipine
Hi Everyone I have micro vascular angina and along with other pills I was put on 5mg amlodipine. My blood pressure has been too low now so consultant suggested cutting it in half, well not had much luck with that as it seems to crumble up! I’ve been told that 2.5mg is not available. Any suggestions?

Waiting for LFT results
Hi, Went to have my blood pressure checked, which was high and given Amlodipine for that. Also had a blood test which showed elevated enzymes so am awaiting results of a Liver Function Test. I never considered myself a heavy drinker. Never got drunk. Just a couple of pints most evenings on the way home

Amlodipine
I have recently had my hysterectomy cancelled because of high blood pressure, and I've been prescribed Amlodipine to bring it down so I can have the surgery, which I desperately need because of severe prolapse. My full-body RLS has been controlled for many years by Dihydrocodiene, but since taking Amlodipine

Stent recovery time?
So 3 days ago I had a stent put in 95% blocked LAD. No HA, this was a planned procedure following an angiogram 3 months ago. I'd appreciate hearing others' experiences of how they felt after a stent and how long it took to feel fighting fit again. Everything I read online (God bless Google) and heard

Gum problems & Amlodipine
Hi, my gums have been swelling and bleeding for a few months so I went to the dentist and she’s diagnosed Gingival hyperplasia. She asked all about my heart condition and medication. As soon as I mentioned Amlodipine, which Ive been on for 4 months, she said this was a common side effect. Im wondering

Postcard from Como!
I haven't been very active on here for a while but thought I'd say 'hello' with this photo of our "room with a view" which I took yesterday when the sun was shining. Making the most of seeing beautiful places while we still can ... my medication makes me a bad traveler, my normally slim ankles are unbelievably
