Your opinion about lercanidipine vs amlodipine in htn control in 72 htn male with renal impairment and lvh ,paroxysmal a fib?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hi BP drugs: They are both in the same class of drugs called calcium channel blockers for treatment of high BP. If that does not lower it enough there are many additional classes of meds that can be added such as angiotensin blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, diuretics, life style changes. See a good internist!
