Side Effects:

Common side effects include:

• Headache: Often occurs during the initial phase of treatment.

• Dizziness or Lightheadedness: Especially when starting the medication or increasing the dose.

• Flushing (Warmth, Redness, or Tingly Feeling): Due to blood vessel dilation.

• Fatigue: A general feeling of tiredness.

• Swelling (Edema): Particularly of the ankles or feet.

These side effects are usually mild and tend to diminish as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if they persist or become bothersome, consult your healthcare provider.

Serious side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention:

• Severe Hypotension (Low Blood Pressure): Symptoms include fainting or severe dizziness.

• Increased Chest Pain or Heart Attack: Though rare, some individuals may experience worsening chest pain or a heart attack when starting amlodipine or increasing the dose.

• Allergic Reactions: Such as rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.

Precautions:

• Medical History: Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disease, liver problems, or low blood pressure.

• Alcohol Consumption: Limit alcohol intake, as it can enhance certain side effects like dizziness and increase the risk of low blood pressure.

• Grapefruit Products: Avoid large amounts of grapefruit or grapefruit juice, as they can increase amlodipine levels in the blood, leading to enhanced effects and potential toxicity.

• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Discuss with your doctor the potential risks and benefits if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

• Operating Machinery: Due to possible dizziness or fatigue, ensure you know how amlodipine affects you before driving or operating heavy machinery
