Brief Answer:
Yes, can be switched if taking for high bp only

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I guess you are taking sectral for hypertension only. If such is the case then you may switch from sectral to norvasc. Norvasc usually begins with 5 mg once a day. Keep check on bp and pulse rate while in transition and for dose optimization.
Hope this helps you and get back if you have any doubts.
