Side Effects

Amlopres AT is well tolerated by most adults with regular use. However since it contains two active ingredients some people may notice certain body reactions — particularly in the early days of use or when the strength is adjusted.

Common Reactions These are mild and usually settle on their own within the first few days:

• Dizziness or lightheadedness — especially when standing up quickly

• Mild headache in the initial days

• Tiredness or low energy levels

• Slow heart rate — a normal and expected effect of Atenolol

• Mild swelling in the ankles or feet — a common effect of Amlodipine

• Feeling of warmth or flushing in the face

Most people using Amlopres AT experience only mild and short lived reactions that settle as the body adjusts. Staying consistent with your dose timing, maintaining a heart friendly lifestyle, and being aware of any unusual changes in your body ensures a safe and comfortable long term experience with Amlopres AT.
