I think amlodipine cause my heart pounding - palpitation. Like its racing. Should I stop amlodipine and take only atenolol ? Or any other alternative ?

I think, first you check your tsh and ecg, pounding of heat may not be because of amlodac. Rule out other causes first.

As of now follow your doctors advice and liver side effects is negligible with amlodipine but just imagine if you don’t take medication than what all can be damaged in your body with high Bp

Hello Mr. lybrate-user. You can take either losartan or telmisartan as both belong to same category of drugs but try to adhere to one drug instead of frequently changing it.
