Does Amlodipine Cause Recurring Nosebleeds?

I m a 68 year old male and have been taking Amlodipine 5mg for the last month. The last couple of days, I ve been dealing with nosebleeds, on and off. I m generally healthy and it s been quite a while since I ve had a nosebleed apropos of nothing. What s the general likelihood that the Amlodipine could be contributing to this.

In very rare cases amlodpine can cause nosebleeds. If you want an estimate, it would be like 0.01% of cases.
I would recommend you to have regular blood pressure measurements and get yourself evaluated for nosebleeds.
Hope the above information solves your query. Thanks and have a nice day.
