About Amlodipine
Amlodipine is a prescription medicine from a group called calcium channel blockers. It relaxes and widens the blood vessels, so blood flows more easily, the heart does not have to pump as hard, and more blood reaches the heart muscle. This lowers blood pressure and helps prevent angina (chest pain). It controls these conditions but does not cure them. It comes as tablets, capsules or a liquid, and it is also found in combination tablets with other blood pressure or heart medicines.
What it is used for
- High blood pressure (hypertension), to lower the risk of serious problems such as heart attacks and strokes
- Preventing angina (chest pain caused by poor blood flow to the heart), including a rare type called Prinzmetal's or variant angina
- Coronary artery disease (narrowed blood vessels to the heart)
- High blood pressure in children and teenagers aged 6 to 17
What it is not for
- It does not give quick relief of an angina attack that has already started. It works by helping to prevent attacks when taken regularly.
- It is not used for angina in children; in children it is only used for high blood pressure.
- It has not been studied in children under 6.
Common side effects
- Swollen ankles, feet or legs (fluid build-up), the most common side effect
- Headache, dizziness or feeling sleepy
- A pounding or fluttering heartbeat (palpitations)
- Flushing (redness and warmth) of the face or neck
- Feeling sick (nausea) or tummy pain
- Constipation, diarrhoea or indigestion
- Tiredness or weakness
- Blurred or double vision
- Muscle cramps
Get medical help straight away if
- Call an ambulance or go to the emergency department for signs of a severe allergic reaction: swelling of the eyelids, face, lips, tongue or throat, sudden wheezing, chest tightness, difficulty breathing, or an itchy raised rash.
- Get emergency help for signs of a heart attack, sudden chest pain, a fast, pounding or uneven heartbeat, or fainting.
- Get medical help straight away if your angina chest pain becomes more frequent or more severe.
- Get medical help straight away for sudden, severe tummy pain that may spread to the back and does not go away. This can be a sign of an inflamed pancreas (pancreatitis).
- Get medical help straight away for a widespread rash, blistering, peeling skin or painful sores with flu-like symptoms (Stevens-Johnson syndrome).
- Contact a doctor for yellow skin or eyes, unusual bruising or bleeding, or swollen or bleeding gums. These are very rare.
- If you have taken too much, get medical help straight away. Signs include feeling very dizzy or faint, cold and clammy skin, or passing out, and breathlessness can come on later. Do not drive yourself to hospital.
Who should not take it, or should take care
- Do not take it if you are allergic to amlodipine, any of the other ingredients, or another calcium channel blocker.
- Do not take it if you have very low blood pressure.
- Do not take it if you have a narrowed heart valve (aortic stenosis) or cardiogenic shock (when the heart cannot pump enough blood).
- Do not take it if you have heart failure after a heart attack.
- Tell your doctor if you have had a recent heart attack, have heart failure, or have had a sudden, severe rise in blood pressure.
- Tell your doctor if you have liver disease.
- Older people may need their treatment adjusted, so tell your doctor if you are elderly.
- Pregnancy: tell your doctor if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy. NHS advice says it is not usually recommended because safer similar medicines are available, but a doctor may still use it if it is needed.
- Breastfeeding: a small amount passes into breast milk, and NHS says it is not usually used while breastfeeding. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding or plan to.
Medicines and drinks that can interact
- Grapefruit and grapefruit juice: avoid them, as they can raise the amount of amlodipine in your blood and lower your blood pressure too much
- Simvastatin (a cholesterol medicine)
- Some antibiotics, such as rifampicin, erythromycin and clarithromycin
- Some antifungal medicines, such as ketoconazole, itraconazole and fluconazole
- Some HIV medicines (protease inhibitors such as ritonavir)
- Other heart medicines such as verapamil and diltiazem
- Medicines that calm the immune system, such as ciclosporin, tacrolimus, sirolimus and everolimus
- Dantrolene given into a vein (used in hospital)
- Other blood pressure medicines, which may lower your blood pressure more
- St John's wort (a herbal remedy)
- Alcohol: keep it low, as it can make low blood pressure and dizziness more likely
Always tell your doctor and pharmacist about every medicine, supplement and herbal product you take.
Using it safely
- Keep taking it even if you feel well. High blood pressure often has no symptoms. Most people need long-term treatment.
- Do not stop taking it suddenly unless your doctor tells you to, as this can be dangerous and your condition may come back.
- You can take it before or after eating. Swallow it with water, and never with grapefruit juice.
- Never take two doses together to make up for a missed one. Check the leaflet or ask your pharmacist what to do.
- If it makes you dizzy, sleepy or sick, or gives you a headache, do not drive, ride a bike or use machines until you feel better.
- Some side effects get better as your body gets used to it. Speak to a pharmacist or doctor if they bother you or do not go away.
- Follow a low-salt diet if your doctor advises it, and go to your blood pressure checks.
- Tell any doctor, dentist or pharmacist that you take amlodipine, and mention all other medicines, herbal remedies and supplements.
- Do not share your medicine. Keep it out of the sight and reach of children.
Common questions
Why are my ankles swollen?
Swollen ankles and feet are the most common side effect of amlodipine. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if the swelling bothers you or does not go away, but do not stop taking it unless a doctor tells you to.
Can I eat grapefruit while taking amlodipine?
No. Avoid grapefruit and grapefruit juice. They can increase the amount of amlodipine in your body and make side effects more likely.
Can I drink alcohol with amlodipine?
Keep alcohol low. Alcohol can lower your blood pressure further, which can make you feel dizzy or faint.
Will amlodipine help during an angina attack?
No. Amlodipine helps prevent angina when taken regularly, but it does not ease chest pain that has already started. Ask your doctor what to do during an attack, and get medical help straight away if your chest pain is getting more frequent or worse.
My blood pressure is normal now. Can I stop amlodipine?
Not without talking to your doctor. Your blood pressure is probably normal because the medicine is working. Stopping suddenly can be dangerous and your blood pressure may rise again.
