My doctor prescribed Amlodipine 2.5mg's blood pressure medication for me, however I have read that it can cause heart irregularity and rhythm side effects. From what I have read the side effects stated in the product insert do not accurately reflect a lot of peoples experience using this drug. Has anyone in this forum taken Amlodipine and have been troubled with heart beat irregularity or extra beat problems from the drug.

These side effects mostly happen at higher dosages (10mg for example).
Of course, everyone's experience with a drug is different, so if you notice any rhythm irregularity, please contact your doctor. Also pay attention to swelling of the lower extremities.

Several different drugs commonly used for hypertension treatment can cause irregular heartbeat. What matters is how well YOU personally tolerate amlodipine.
I am taking amlodipine precisely because I was unable to tolerate the side effects of two other categories of anti-hypertensive medication, one of which (hydrochlorothiazide) gave me an irregular heartbeat. I have had no issues with irregular heartbeat on amlodipine.
