Moderator pacmanx1 Posted March 14, 2010 Moderator Share Posted March 14, 2010 Has anyone taken or are taking this medication for high blood pressure? Amlodipine Besylate 10Mg My intentions are to help, my advice maybe wrong, be your own advocate and know what is in your C-File and the 38 CFR that governs your disabilities and conditions. Do your own homework. No one knows the veteran’s symptoms like the veteran. Never Give Up. I do not give my consent for anyone to view my personal VA records.

smilen66 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I take Amlodipine 10mg and 3 other blood pressure medications. The other blood pressure medications I take are atenolol 100mg, mycardis 80mg and guanfacine 1mg. Mycardis is mixed with hydro thychrothiaxide 25mg. I've been on these medications for three years come April. They all seem to be working for me right now. Smilen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shamrock Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I take it along with 1/2 tablet of lisinopril 20mg tab. It seems to work, I just hope so for the long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
