HELLO AND WELCOME. STORVAS DOES NOT CAUSE CONSTIPATION.
AMTAS AT HAS AMLODIPINE
AMTAS TOO HAS AMLODIPINE
AMLODIPINE IS A CALCIUM CHANNEL BLOCKER AND IT CAUSES CONSTIPATION. KINDLY STATE YOUR AVERAGE BP CONTROL READINGS EG THRICE A DAY N LET ME KNOW SO THAT ALTERATIONS IN UR MEDICATION CAN BE DONE. GASTRIC IE DYSPEPSIA CAN BE CAUSED BY A NUMBER OF MEDICINE. THANX
