Does amlodipine medicine affects male fertility?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Check out online.Epocrates.Com & drugs.Com for drug information including interactions. Neither make mention of male fertility as an issue of amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker commonly used to lower high blood pressure. However, issues associated w/high blood pressure may affect erectile function so best to address this w/your doctor.

Yup.: This is a calcium channel blocker. This class of agents can affect the ability of sperm to fertilize eggs in real life. In fact, these class of agents is being studied as a form of male contraceptive. Change to something else if possible.
