Dec 2013 journal of ama found taking ccb at same time with antibiotic can cause breast cancer &kidney problems. how safe is ccb amlodipine &widely use?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
CCB: Preliminary data shows that CCB (independent of antibiotics) in older women after 10 years is associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. This is still under investigation as is the data of antibiotics. No firm conclusions can be made yet. An association is not the same as a cause.
