Hello @joem, if you are comfortable, do you mind sharing a bit more about what brought you to Mayo Clinic Connect? You mentioned Amlodipine and irbesartan therapy for high blood pressure, is there a particular issue or question you have about them?

Hello, and thank You for your interest. I have been following Mayo Clinic for years.
I have been taking Irbesartan 300 since 2010 and now a new cardiologist wants me to take hydrochloride and amlodipine, to keep my b/p under 120/80.
I am starting to have doubts. My b/p fluctuates between 110/79 to 130/8. My feet only start to swell after being standing more tha 16 hours.
