I've been on blood pressure meds for the past couple of months, but recently I've been experiencing a heavy feeling in my head and some dimness, especially at night. It's starting to worry me. Could you provide some guidance on what I should do next?
"Hello, based on your symptoms of feeling heavy-headed and dizzy, especially at night, it is possible that you may be experiencing side effects from your blood pressure medication. I would recommend consulting with your doctor to discuss these symptoms. They may consider adjusting your medication or trying a different one. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you are taking amlodipine for your blood pressure, the dosage is typically 5-10 mg once daily."
