Hi,
I understand your concern and would explain that both Cinnarizine and Amlodipine can lead to leg swelling. For this reason, I would not recommend taking them concomitantly as your father is experiencing this adverse effect.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
