Such as weight gain, thinning hair, etc. My doctor wants to try me on this med because I have this rash and itchy skin around my eyes and patches on my face. She thinks it may be my Lisinopril I have been taking for years. After reading so many awful side effects of Diovan, I am very reluctant to switch. Can anyone help?
Many of you mentioned it lowered your blood pressure. But did you have any side effects?

You know I do the same thing you are doing Everybody is different try the new med at the first sign of a side effect that you are uncomfortable with talk to your doctor and hopefully make a change. I hope this helps. I started a new med today and I am still waiting for any one of the horrible side effects to rear it's ugly head so far so good. Good Luck Hope it helps
