Brief Answer: No,it wont cause elevation of blood pressure. Detailed Answer: Hello there, Nice to meet you here, No, it won’t cause elevation of blood pressure, both amlodipine and alpha lipaic acid are blood pressure reducing drugs. As you are having fever associated with increase in blood pressure, I need you to do a routine blood investigation and urine sampling to rule out infection, follow up with results. If your condition worsen, try to visit a physician and get treated accordingly. Feel free to ask future queries. Take care. Dr.surendiran.g
