Hello,
Regarding your concern, I would like to know the dose of Amlodipine that you are taking and your mean blood pressure values.
Some foods that may help reduce blood pressure naturally are:
- garlic, lemon juice, fruits, a lot of vegetables.
I would also recommend reducing maximally salt and caffeine intake.
If your blood pressure values drop naturally with these foods, you can gradually taper Amlodipine dose.
