Asomex contains the active ingredient Amlodipine, it is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions.
Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and headache.
I am 65yrs old and i am on asomex 2.5mg and advantec tab 12.5 mg daily. In fact i take HALF OF EACH TAB IN THE EVENING after meals and my bp is 130/80. I have been taking these tablets for the past 4yrs when my bp was 220/120. I had ecg done by my treating Dr n it reveals no abnormality. The reason i take half of these tablets is that it gave me dizziness when i take the full dose.
Koomar, have you consulted your doctor about the dizziness?
The Advantec contains Candesartan, which is an ARB and both it and the Amlodipine in the Asomex can cause dizziness as a side effect.
However, there are other things that could cause it, as well.
Have you ever checked your blood pressure at the times you got dizzy?
