This medicine has greatly decreased my sexual ability. Noticeable decrease within 2-3 weeks of changing to this. It has lowered my BP done to within a good range though.

I have been on this 10 mg-12.5 mg for 4 years successfully keeping down my BP, however, it has also depleted my Potassium to the point that I am on a high dose of prescription strength Potassium.
