A member asked:
Do i have to be on norvasc (amlodipine) forever now that at the age of 60 i have high blood pressure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Controversy: the new guidelines allowing higher blood pressures in patients over 60 are very controversial. They fly in the face of many other studies suggesting lower blood pressures are safer including the elderly. Many doctors, myself included, strongly disagree with those guidelines.
