Hi,

Swelling in the ankles while on Amlodipine is a common side effect of Amlodipine. The swelling is not dangerous. This medication should be changed in our case.

I suggest you to consult your doctor for an alternative medication.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
