Can I take Amlodipine and Beclometasone dipropionate together?

Why this happens

Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker used for blood pressure, and beclometasone is a corticosteroid used for asthma or hay fever. They are processed by different pathways in the body and do not have conflicting effects.

You can safely take these two medicines together as prescribed. However, if you are using beclometasone in tablet form (rather than an inhaler or nasal spray) for a long time, your doctor may want to monitor your blood pressure, as steroid tablets can sometimes cause the body to retain salt and water.
