Suggest Remedy For Edema On Feet When On Telmisartan

I have taking Concor AM 5mg in the night and Cilicar 10mg + Telmisartan H 80mg in the morning. My BP is in control. However, I get Odema in my feet. To avoid this a junior doctor suggested me to take plain Concor 5mg and take a Cilicar 10mg in the night too. Basically replaing 5mg of Amlodepine with 10mg of Cilindipine. Is it OK to have 20 mg in total of Cilicar per day???

Hello,

Your symptoms yes you can.If with this dosage the arterial blood pressure is in normal ranges and if peripheral edema gets better it means that you are in the right way.
