Occasional Dizziness And Chest Heaviness. On Amlokind AT For High BP That Is Under Control. Is It Due To Medicine?
I am a male of 51 yrs age. I am having Amlokind AT (25 mg)/day for high BP . With this medicine the BP is very well controlled, but at times I feel dizziness & chest heaviness. Please confirm whether it is normal to have this feeling with this medicine. Should I continue with it or change it. Hope there are no major side effects of this medicine. Thanks. Colonel SK
Hello
If you are feeling chest heaviness then you should be examined by a cardiologist and get relevant investigations to rule out angina.
These are not the side effects of the medicine you are using.
As such there are no major side effects of this medicine.
Thanks
