Hello, Welcome to ChatDoctorSince your age is 63 years, and you are taking combination of Amlodipine 5 mg and Atenolol 50, your blood pressure is not under very much good control. I usually start my patients who come with high blood pressure with ACE inhibitors like April -2.5/5/10 mg or AT-1 antagonists like Telmisartan-20/40 mg. They are very good for kidneys also. If you are already having diabetic nephropathy, you can't take this Chat Doctor. Otherwise, you can surely take this for control of blood pressure after consulting your doctor. Thank you.
