Can I Take Metoprolol And Amlodipine In The Evening?

I am taking Metoprolol Tartrate 50 MG Twice daily, Lisinopril 40 MG once daily, Amlodipine Besylate 5 MG once daily, and Hydrochlorothiazide 25 MG Once daily, + a 81 MG aspirin every evening. I had three lengthy episodes with 200+/100+ BP over the last 1 1/2 years, so have been put on this regiment of medications. I am an 81 years young senior that enjoys life, and want to have a good one. The question came up today that maybe I should be taking some of these medications in the evening instead of with breakfast.??

Dear Friend.
Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.

Yes you can take Metoprolol and Amlodipine in the evening.
However, Hydrochlorothiazide should be taken in morning always as it is a diuretic and if taken in night would disturb your sleep as a result of excessive urination.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you want to discuss your issues further, you may please ask us
