Brief Answer:
Amlodipine 10 mg

Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Yes, in my patients I prefer a single 10 mg once a day dose of amlodipine instead of twice a day 5 mg.

The preferred method would be not to take the 10 mg all at once but to increase the single dose by 2.5 mg every 4 to 5 days ultimately reaching a maintenance dose of 10 mg in about 2 weeks.

Please apprise your treating physician of this method and do so accordingly.


Wishing you best of health

Thanks
