Amlodipine belongs to the calcium antagonist, acts on the systemic vascular smooth muscle, so as to reduce blood pressure. Sildenafil mainly acts on the blood vessels of the cavernous body of the penis to treat erectile dysfunction. The two have different sites and mechanisms of action and different metabolic pathways, so they do not react with each other pharmacologically and can be taken together.
However, their use together may enhance the antihypertensive effect, and blood pressure needs to be monitored to prevent hypotension. Studies have found that if amlodipine and sildenafil are taken together, the average systolic blood pressure is reduced by 8mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 7mmHg. If the blood pressure is already low, it is not recommended to take sildenafil at the same time as amlodipine in order to avoid hypotension.
If uncomfortable symptoms occur during the medication, you must go to the regular hospital to avoid serious consequences.
