Content of both the medicines are same that is atenolol and Amlodipine. Drug efficacy depends on multiple factors during production post production, so minor variation might come due to change in the brand. Since both the medications are same I would not advise to change the drug.

Next Steps

Consult a physician and go for a superior molecule if required.
