High blood pressure tablets - how long before they work?

DH went to the GP end of the week after hideous headaches for two weeks and feeling unwell. His BP has always been on high side but it is now 180/120 consistently.
Not surprisingly he was put on Amlodipine (Istin) 10mg.
However he has spent all weekend floored by hideous headaches still, and spent last night on the toilet with D&V Sad

I’m worried, how long before he gets relief from head aches?
D&V is not listed as a common symptom but pancreatitis is a less common more serious one... but he doesn’t have pain so might just be unlucky and have a virus, not sure what to do...
Any advice appreciated

Ring 111 or your GP's out of hours number. No need to wait any longer.
