A member asked:

I take both isradipine and losartan for hbp. previously was prescribed nefidipine which caused swollen ankles. still have swollen ankles. what?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Isradipine: Isradipine is similar to Nifedipine so the swollen ankles aren't a surprise if the Nifedipine was the cause. A different agent or a trial of support hose may help.
