No advantage of switching to Telma AM as its the same group combination. If your BP is not controlled on cilacar T then you need dose modification. Consult online directly for prescription

You can continue Cilacar T and monitor your BP three times a day for a week. No major advantage of switching over to Amlodipine in place of Cilnidipine. The Joint pain and myalgia needs evaluation with a physician/Rheumatologist.
Next Steps
Consult with a BP chart.
