Detailed Answer:
Hello There
After going your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that sometimes high blood pressure management may require multiple drugs intake with lifestyle and dietary modification.
You should check your blood pressure on daily basis for some time till your medicine dose get set. Your target is to keep your blood pressure under 140/90mmHg.
If you are experiencing any swelling with the current anti-hypertensive medication then stop taking amlodipine and switch to telmisarten. You need to consult your healthcare provider personally for prescribed medication.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly. You can revert back with more queries if you have .
