Just Seeing On This Site Amlodipine Besylate Can Cause Parkinson's.
Just seeing on this site Amlodipine besylate can cause Parkinson's. My husband has been on it for quite some time.
Been on high bp meds for about 25 yrs as started in his 40's. He is experiencing PD like symptoms. Neurologist though felt not strong enough evidence to claim PD but could be early stage. Also diagnosed with stage 3 kidney disease three years ago. It has held its position with the numbers until this last one where PTH had jumped up into the 90's and calcium at 10 on his blood work.
Wondering what we should do as to the meds. His bp was dropping so low just recently stopped his Amlodipine besylate as already halved to 50 instead of the 100 he was put on. But then it started popping up again so took it last two or three days.
