Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello! Thank you for asking on HCM! Regarding your concern, I would explain that you should have Amlodipine-Benazepril at the same time each day, monitoring its effectiveness. It may be taken in the morning or in the evening as well. When up-titrating the dose (increasing the dose to better achieve the desirable effects), it may be taken in 1 to 2 divided doses per day. Your sleep will not be affected by the drug. Don't worry! Greetings! Dr. Iliri
