Brief Answer:
Side effects of drug

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I can certainly understand your concerns.

I apologize for the delayed response owing to my work schedule.

I have worked through your query in detail.

Swollen ankle and feet is a very common side effect of Nebistar SA.

One of the drug component Amlodepine is responsible for this side effect.

This should subside slowly on its own.

In case if it does not resolve in 7 days, change of drug after consulting with your cardiologist is indicated.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
