Hi,
We many times use 3 drugs to control blood pressure. There is no harm in using Amlodipine with losartan and thiazide.
However its always best to talk to her doctor before changing or adding any drug. We generally advise waiting for 1 month for BP control before adding another drug.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
