I have developed a rash as well as itching with swelling anyplace I have either a belt or bra stap. I sit on a hard surface only to have my buttocks hard as a rock. I also have had severe backache and vaginal bleeding. While the drug lowers my bp it has caused me pain and tiredness and swelling. Want to stop it now. My back hurts and hard to get out of bed in am.

Over that 15 months, I was told I had scabies, bed bugs, head lice, & eventually, Prurigo Nodularis...NONE were true!! Do yourself a favor & DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG!! If you do, report a rash immediately!!
