Comment:
I have been on it for over a month and have had no side effects at all. My BP is almost in noramal range and at my last DR visit he told me to take 1 1/2 pill per day 7.5 mg. I think that extra half has gotten me in the mid 120 over mid 80. I feel good

I started taking 5 mg, three weeks ago. my chest pains are less frequent, but my bp hasn't decreased to a normal range yet. it is definitely causing nausea and making me gain weight. won't continue using.
