For High Blood Pressure "Have been taking 10-40 dosage for a little over 6 months. Agree with everyone that it seemed like a miracle medicine the first couple of days - “finally something that worked on my blood pressure.” Then started having dizziness, severe flushes, and night sweats (not hot flashes, which was already over with), muscle pain (started taking an increase in calcium, potassium, and magnesium and then read in side effects for Azor that taking potassium with Azor may cause damage to the heart. Also noticed hair loss, which has worsened as time went on, and now noticing patches of hair loss, again, “Hm-mm.... Would I rather have hair loss or low blood pressure?” It is a toss-up, especially since I have tried at least 20 other medications with no success. Going to see my doctor tomorrow, hopefully, there is a remedy for me and good luck to the rest of you."

For High Blood Pressure "This is my first week on Azor, and not only is my blood pressure in the 117/80 range, I slept peacefully through the night and experienced wonderfully pleasant dreams for the first time in nearly five years! So Azor is obviously having a positive effect on my sleep apnea as well. Was a bit dizzy the first morning of the first pill, but have been fine since. I'm grateful for the changes."

For High Blood Pressure "I've had high blood pressure for years. On Thursday, my blood pressure was 206/102. Started this on Friday, and the following Thursday got rechecked, and it was 132/88. I was in tears, my blood pressure hasn't been this low in years. No more headaches, dizziness, blurry vision. I'm so thankful for Azor, it just might have saved my life."
