This amlodipine causes swelling in my 89 year old mother’s legs, ankles, feet; she can barely walk around. Along with this drug , she takes 25mg cardeveliol twice a day, 40 mg of olmesartan with 12.5 hydrochlorothiazide once a day. Furesomide for swelling as needed. We have consulted primary care doctors and no help at all. She has the same problem. She does not eat fast food, cooks with no salt, no can goods, etc. Exercise on a sitting bike at home.
What is a good substitute for 5 mg amlodipine?
