Pharmacist tips for Levamlodipine (Conjupri)

Take levamlodipine (Conjupri) with or without food at any time of day.

You might notice side effects when you start taking levamlodipine (Conjupri) and when the dose is raised. But side effects should get better over time as you continue taking the medication.

Levamlodipine (Conjupri) can interact with commonly used medications like simvastatin (Zocor) or sildenafil (Viagra). Make sure to tell your provider about all the medications you're taking before starting levamlodipine (Conjupri). Additionally, don't start any new medications without talking to your provider or pharmacist first.

Levamlodipine (Conjupri) can cause swelling (edema) in your feet, ankles, legs, hands, or arms. Swelling can be worse if you have other conditions that make it hard for your body to get rid of fluids like congestive heart failure (CHF) or kidney problems. Talk to your provider if the swelling becomes too bothersome.

Frequently asked questions about Levamlodipine (Conjupri)

What's the difference between levamlodipine (Conjupri) and amlodipine (Norvasc)?

Levamlodipine (Conjupri) and amlodipine (Norvasc) are both calcium channel blockers that work well to lower blood pressure. The main difference is in the chemical structure of both medications. Amlodipine (Norvasc) contains a mix of 2 different types of the same active ingredient. On the other hand, levamlodipine (Conjupri) only contains one type of the active ingredient. Studies show that (levamlodipine (Conjupri)) works just as well as amlodipine (Norvasc) at just half the dose, so the dose of levamlodipine (Conjupri) is half the dose of amlodipine (Norvasc). Levamlodipine (Conjupri) might also be better tolerated with cause fewer side effects compared to amlodipine (Norvasc). Ask your provider to see which blood pressure medication is right for you.

Can I use levamlodipine (Conjupri) with my other blood pressure medications?

Yes. Levamlodipine (Conjupri) is FDA approved to be used either on its own or together with your other blood pressure medications. Oftentimes people need multiple medications to treat high blood pressure. Combination therapy, or taking medications from different medication classes at the same time, can help you reach your blood pressure goals. This is because each medication in your regimen can lower your blood pressure by attacking it from different sides.

Can I use levamlodipine (Conjupri) if I have liver problems?

Probably, but your dose of levamlodipine (Conjupri) might be different. If you have liver problems, you might start by using a smaller dose of the medication (1.25 mg) a day. If your dose needs to be raised, your provider will do so at a much slower pace. This is because the liver is responsible for getting rid of levamlodipine (Conjupri) in your body. People with liver problems tend to have a build up of the medication which can put them at risk for side effects.

Can I use levamlodipine (Conjupri) if I'm pregnant?

There haven't been enough studies in humans looking at how levamlodipine (Conjupri) affects unborn babies, so it's not completely known how safe it is. But poorly controlled high blood pressure during pregnancy can be a problem for both the mother and the unborn baby. If you're pregnant, talk to your provider to see if levamlodipine (Conjupri) is safe for you and your unborn baby.
