Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
She needs to be monitored while taking these medications together.
Taking Amlodipine drug along with Carvedilol and Clonidine drugs may have additive effects in lowering your mother's blood pressure and heart rate.
She should consult her treating doctor if she experiences a headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and changes in pulse or heartbeat.
These side effects are most likely to be seen at the beginning of treatment, following a dose increase, or when treatment is restarted after an interruption. She may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by her doctor to safely use these medications.
There's no documented evidence of any harmful interactions between other listed drugs in your query.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
