I have been taking adalat for 21 years now.
In the last 3 years I have lived a healthier lifestyle. My BP has been great. So my doctor said I could ween myself off of medicine. What type of withdrawal symptoms can I expect to have?

Hello, Jan! How are you doing?

The FDA lists the typical ones as possibly including nausea, headache, elevated heart rate and elevated blood pressure.

That's why you need to be very careful to wean off slowly, because it will help prevent your heart rate and blood pressure from hitting dangerous levels.

Is there anything else I can help with?
