Does amlodipine cause muscle weakness, and what are the possible mechanisms? What steps can patients take to strengthen muscles or reduce this side effect?
Amlodipine may cause muscle weakness; this could be due to its effect on calcium channel regulation in muscle cells. Patients can engage in regular, moderate exercise and ensure adequate nutrition to combat this.
