Based on current prices you can have a year of amlodipine 10mg for less than one month of irbesartan 300mg.

Assuming from your post you are actually on individual irbesartan, hydrochlorothiazide and indapamide?
If yes - what strengths for the latter 2 - cannot consider switch suggestions without all info....
