My doctor recently prescribed me Lotrel for my hypertension. Can you tell me how or where I can find information on possible side effects?
Lotrel is a combination of amlodipine and benazepril hydrochloride. These are calcium channel blockers and ACE inhibitors respectfully. Calcium channel blockers generally cause constipation, swollen feet, slow pulses, etc. ACE inhibitors can cause a dry cough, rash, etc. Cough and edema are the things which cause most patients to discontinue this drug.
