Norvasc for Hypertension
I have started taking Norvasc for Hypertension and am having side effects such as nausea, headache, and it seems to be causing some eye pain and pressure. My concern is that I had retinal detachment surgery in March of 2008 and have not had any pain until I started taking Norvasc 5mg. daily. Is this a side effect that is normal and will it subside or is it a reason to discontinue this drug?
Thank you for your information. I will try to figure out how to post a question to the internal medicine forum.

Dear Kathy,
As an ophthalmologist, I do not prescribe Norvasc.
However, I have not particularly seen any eye effects from it.
I recommend you submit your question to the internal medicine or
hypertension part of the forum.
