Hello welcome to HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Yes. you can take losartan and amlodipine twice a day. It depends on dosage actually. Maximum dosage of losartan is 100 mg per day and amlodipine is 10 mg per day.

The other medicines you are taking is lipitor for cholesterol, it should be taken at night after dinner.

Askyour doctor about other brand names which can combine losartan and amlodipine in 1 tab.

Thank you.
Have a nice day.
