Hello,
Yes, you should take amlodipine 2.5 mg as prescribed by your doctor. Please try to stop drinking as it will make your cardiovascular problems worse. Meanwhile, keep monitoring your blood pressure, and record the results for reference.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. All the best.
