For High Blood Pressure "A week of hell on this drug. Sun sensitivity, numbness in my calves as if wading through water, headaches, dry mouth, dry eyes, soreness behind eyeballs, nausea, extreme heartbeats, high pulse rate, no appetite, weight loss, dehydration, cold clammy skin, uncontrollably sweating, hoarseness. Doctor took me off immediately when blood pressure fell uncontrollably to 87/47. Once I stopped, I felt like a new person."

For High Blood Pressure "I had tried a number of medications for high blood pressure, and this is the first one that consistently worked. If I took it in the morning without eating, I would feel nauseous, but if I take it at night, I have no bad side effects. I really like this medication."

For High Blood Pressure "This drug caused my heart and pulse to go out of control, as well as nausea, and at one point, numbness in my calves and knees. The heart beating was so terrible, I went to the emergency room. I also felt tingling throughout my scalp."

For High Blood Pressure "I had been on 10 mg of Norvasc for years. After seeing my primary care doctor in January, she suggested I try Exforge. My BP was 170/80. Taking 5/160 made me feel sick to the stomach, dizzy, and I had developed an itch."
