Reaction to Blood Pressure Medications Posted: 05-21-08 03:14am
My husband is taking amlodipine besylate
10mg for blood pressure and simvastatin
40mg for cholestrol. He is having side
effects we think are related to the pill.
Does anyone have problems with memory, or
balance when while taking this medication?
If so, have you found anything that works
for you without the side effects.

For how long he has been taking these
meds?
Dizziness is a common side effect of
amlodipine.
Memory loss is related to usage of
simvastatin in small percent of users.
It will be right to inform his doctor for
the experienced side effects, cause the
doctor is the one who can recommend
adjusting the dosage or switching to
another medications.
