Can I take Amlodipine/ valsartan and Nebivolol together?

Why this happens

All three medicines work to lower blood pressure but in different ways. Amlodipine relaxes blood vessels, valsartan blocks a hormone that narrows vessels, and nebivolol slows the heart rate. When combined, their effects add together (additive effect).

What you should do

Use with caution. Your doctor has likely prescribed this combination intentionally, but you should monitor your blood pressure and heart rate regularly. If you feel very dizzy, tired, or notice a very slow pulse, contact your doctor. To avoid dizziness, stand up slowly from a sitting or lying position.

Important precautions

Asthma or COPD

Do not take this medicine if you have asthma, a history of wheezing, or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as it can cause life-threatening narrowing of the airways.

Food and drink warnings

Alcool

Drinking alcohol can increase the blood-pressure-lowering effect of these medicines, which may make you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint, especially when standing up. It is best to keep your alcohol intake within recommended limits and see how the medicine affects you first.
