Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been taking metoprolol 200mg in the evening, micardis 80 mg. in the morning and clonidine0.1 mg once in the morning and once in the evening and my blood pressure has been high the last three times I went to the doctor. I go every three months. Amlodipine Besylate 5 mg once a day was added. This seems to be a lot of medication for blood pressure to me. And when should I take the amlodipine?
Dear I am sorry for the symptoms you are suffering and your unstable blood pressure Your new medicaments ( amlodipine) is calci blocker and it is effective in most cases Maybe your dosage is a little low you may take it 10 mg a day The better time is 10 am I think you will be fine after rising the dose of amlodipine Wish you all the best Regards
