Is There Any Side Effect Of Amlodipine 5 Mg?
I want to know if taking amlodipine 5mg will do me any harm as i have been on cardicor 2.5 mg for 3-4 and perindopril 4 mg. for the same time my dr seems to think I should have a change of medication but reading the side effects of amlodipine makes me quiet worried. what do you think?

Hello.Facial flushing or swelling of feet are common side effects of amlodipine (with dose of 5mg are less likely). The benefit-risk balance of the drug is positive, it is a good option to treat high blood pressure.I wish you good health.
