Comment:
This drug worked for reducing my Blood Pressure. However, this drug is causing multiple side effects for me including headaches, body fatigue, some foot numbness and just not feeling normal. After 2 long weeks...It's time to try something else.

Comment:
I was taking 300 mg daily for 9 months and have not been on a worst drug for side effects. Constant fatigue, frequent urination and daily cramps under the soles of my feet. I feel that this drug robbed me of 9 months of my life. Would not recommend it for anyone.

I was taking 75 mg every day for 7 years ( high blood pressure) and after researching realised that a lot of my health problems were caused by this drug.I could not understand why I was feeling like I did because I did everything right re: lifestyle changes. Have ceased taking it . 2 weeks off it and feel fantastic and back to my old self.

Comment:
I have been on Avapro for a long time and it has been very effective in keeping my blood pressure down. However, recently, I have had difficulty in getting Avapro. It is no longer in the pharmacies and on back order. I have tried other BP medications that have not worked as well. Please get this medication back in the pharmacies ASAP.
