Are Enlarged Testicles A Side Effect Of Amlodipine And Losartan-Hydrochlorothiazide?
Hi, I m a 65 yr old male, over weight, with blood pressure under control taking Amplodidine 10 mg & losartan hctz 100/25. Since starting the Amplodidine I ve noticed my testicles have inlarged, can this be a side effect of this prescription or combination of drugs?

Hello,
Generally, Amlodipine will cause body edema (swelling). That has happened to your testicles. Please report this side effect to your caring doctor to change therapy. Plus need to check your genitalia with urologist to rule out possible infection or problems with blood circulation in your genitalia.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
All the best.
