Hi thanks for asking question.

Your age is younger and you have now blood pressure 110 / 90 which is good.You have not mentioned previous blood pressure before 2 year since you are taking drug.

Yes amlodipine slowly eliminate from body.
So can affect liver.LFT done to check whether liver affected or not.You can take life style measures and gradually leave drug for blood pressure and regular bp checking done...

Take low fat diet.....

Junk food taken very less .....

Low salt diet taken....

Cheese, butter, non veg food , baked pestry better to avoid.......

Take care....
