Recently started on lercanidipine 10mg every morning. At first no side effects but 4 days in feeling lightheaded and a bit shaky. Bp is lowered now to 125/69 ish. Wondering if I should take it at night instead.

🤔 Maybe discuss this with your GP

Take lercanidipine once a day, preferably in the morning. You should take the tablet about 30 minutes before you eat. Do not drink grapefruit juice whilst you are on lercanidipine.8 May 2019
