    What's the point of treating high blood pressure when the mediation increases hunger and leaves one so exhausted that exercise is impossible? Isn't that counter productive? It also takes away any motivation to do the things that I enjoy. This should be used in place of Thorazine! I would rather have a beautiful, happy life and risk the effects of hypertention than spend the rest of my days ... Show Full Comment

    My first BP med caused a chronic cough after 1 month, so I switched to this. It worked great on BP but after 2 months I had several frustrating side affects. Dry mouth, weight gain, EXTREME dizzyness when getting up. Sore/stiff lower back when standing up. Stopped taking.

    I took this for 5 days, and was so exhausted in the afternoon I could not keep my eyes open. I woke up the 5th night with unbelieveable painful legs, ankle, feet, and toe cramps!!! I started with a cold sore after one day, and it countinued to spread to the entire lips and was only stopped by my taking valtrex!!

    I instantly felt better after taking this medication. I didn't realize the excess water was affecting my blood pressure.
