Hello Doctor! I am 48 years old female. Yesterday afternoon I was feeling uneasy and causative. I used my mom's BP apparatus to check the BP and it showed 185/105. Immediately I took one amlodipine 5 mg from my mom's medicine box and consumed it. After one hour I went to see the physician and through out the journey I was vomiting. The physician checked my BP which was 130/88 and ECG was normal. As my BP was high before taking medicine the physician advised me to take amlodipine 5 mg daily. My query is will I have to this medicine life long. Can I go for Ayurvedic or Homeopathic treatment for this. Pls advise.
