Norvasc (amlodipine): So far on 10 mg Norvasc and 80 mg Micardis. Has proven to be an effective combination for my hypertension. Previsouly my readings were around 160/90 and now it is around 130/75. I am 39 years old, obese person (100kg) 5ft 6 inches in height. I have been having hihg blood pressure for about a few years now and have tried quite a few types of medicine until these two which has been ok so far. 8 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you?

amlodipine: I have been on this medication for a few months and the results have been great for me. I also work out 5-7 days a week. I feel much better and I no longer have those nagging headaches. You should exercise to get the total benefit. 9 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Norvasc (amlodipine): I take Norvasc half of a 5 mg daily and a l/2 fluid pill 3 times a week. I added Vit.B complex for stress, Vit.A and D, Vit.E, and potassium. This works well with me. 12 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Norvasc (amlodipine): Riding a bicycle 30-40mins twice a day 3-6 days a week. Had trouble witha high diastolic pressure but since dose was increased from 5mg to 10mg, it dropped and the exercise has definitely prevented any swelling. 19 user(s) found this comment helpful.

amlodipine: I cannot rate this highly enough, since just before I was prescribed amlodipine, my B.P. was 225/147 and was feeling decidedly unwell, have had serious hemorrhaging in my left eye for which I was regularly having laser eye treatment. After takin amlodipine within 24hours my B.P. went down to 136/78 and has stayed that way for the last 3 months. 27 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Norvasc (amlodipine): ankles may swell if no exercise and possible nasal stuffiness and swelling. Very effective in reducing b.p. 64 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate
