Effects Of Amlodipine Besylate On Libido

Updated

I'm taking amlodipine besylate 10mg for high blood pressure maintenance and my libido has deteriorated. Is it because of this medication? By the way I'm 52 yrs old, thanks..

Yes, most blood pressure medications are known to cause loss of libido as a side effect, according to NIH reports, along with nausea, dizziness, headache, and increased urination.

You might want to speak to your doctor about trying a different medication to see if it doesn't cause you the same issue.

Is there anything else I can help with?
