I suppose you are talking about amlodipine, not 'amlopidine'. If a very common side effect of drugs with amlodipine is swelling (fluid retention). This side effect may affect more than 1 in 10 people. Changing the drug can only be done by a doctor - you should talk to him about the fact that swelling of the ankles and calves has appeared.
