How To Stop Amlodipine? Taking It For Hypertension. What Is The Normal BP Reading?
How do I wean my self off of amlodipine besylate - 10 mg per day? I take it for high blood pressure in conjunction with a beta blocker . I have recently lost 15 lbs. and my blood pressure is lowering.... 110/76 this morning. I dont want blood pressure to go too low. What blood pressure reading would be too low? I am traveling for work and can t get to my dr. for 2 more weeks.
First of all how u checked ur BP if by electronic machine then better if u get it check by a medical professional and still if it comes 110/76 or low then reduce ur dose of amlodipine from 10mg to 5mg per day and then again check BP after 2days of changing dose
