Kidney stone
I have been taking amlodiphine 5mg for 15 years. When I checked before 15 years I had kidney stone of around 5mm. Now i found calculi of 10mm and 4.7mm in the lower pole causing focal calyectasis . Health condition is ok and all blood values like kidney function test values are ok . Is there any relation of amlodiphine and kidney stone? Do I need to change or reduce blood pressure tablet? With BP is normal . Is there any medicine to crush and reduce kidney stone? Someone suggested to take potrate MB for 2 months and later Himalaya cystone. Is it good for crushing or reducing size of kidney stone?.( i don't have any pain or any other discomfort)
