My husband takes the blue generic version of amlodipine/benazepril. When the pharmacy filled it again they shipped Dr. Reddy's brand of 5/20 amlodipine/benazepril and when he started it he had chest pains and anxiety. Could this be be due to the change to Dr Reddy's brand?

Hello, Melody! How is he doing, now? Has there been any change?

Yes, as permitted by the Hatch Waxman Act of 1984, there can be differences between generic medications.

But what are the markings on the pills he's received? This information would help me look into more details on it for you.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.
