Generally, I'd recommend discussing any dose related questions with your doctor, since he/she prescribed you a certain amount for a good reason. However I did come across some prescribing information for this drug, stating that the usual adult dose for hypertension is 5mg orally once a day, as an initial dose; and 5 to 10 mg orally once a day as a maintenance dose.

Since you're already taking 10mg, talking to your doctor may still be something you'd want to go ahead and do; to find out if an increase above the "usual adult dose" is appropriate for your condition, and more importantly, safe for you.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Amlodipine Details

I hope this helps!
