Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): 3 days of using Azor and had swelling of my lower lip. I was taken off Lisinopril for the same reason.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): Excellent medicine for me with no side effects. Have been on 5/20 dosage once daily along with 25mg of hydrochlorothiazide and my blood pressure is the lowest it's been in 40 years. My average reading about 118/72. Previously had readings of 160-170/90-100

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): 49 years old. Have had high blood pressure for a while now with readings like 175/102-170/100-160-/98 and when I would get stressed even higher than that. At night and at rest sitting in a chair it would come down to almost normal 145/85-150/88 but soon as I was active again it would go high . Never could get it to straighten out. Been taking Azor for a week now and out of 15 readings I have done my average is this 129/75. A lot of times sitting watching T.V it will be like 119/66-121/70 really great readings then when I get active I would check it and it would be like this 132/75-134/77 have had hardly any readings over 80 at all and the top number has not been over 140 since I have been taking Azor. All in all no side effects. Great stuff.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): I am 61 years old, diagnosed high blood pressure when 18 years old. I was 6'1" when 18 and weighed 175, 29" pant size with 44 coat size. Have taken drugs for over 40 years trying to keep blood pressure in the 150 over 100 range. (Vasotec, Lotril, and others). Started Azor (lowest dose available), 2 years ago and have never had a reading over 120/80! No side effects for me and I feel great.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): Doctor recommended Azor after finding blood pressure was 180/120, brought it down to 120/80 in a couple of days. Took a few days to get accustomed to effects but feel 100% back to normal now.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): I went through several BP meds. Some made me sleep all day and others just did not work. I have two young boys, and I knew I needed something that really worked. After a year or so of the wrong medicines, my doctor put me on Azor. Like everyone here my improvement was so sudden and so good. I was immediately back on the top of my game in work and home life. Like I said, I have two boys - under 6! I cannot afford to make an early exit from this world. Azor is helping massively. Now I need to do my part and lose 50 pounds! Good luck to all. Ask your doctor about this one.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): Azor is a powerful high blood pressure medicine. Unless you are in otherwise good health, do not abuse. As with all HBP medicines, take before bedtime and do not mix with alcohol or sleep aids. Good luck.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): Azor has been a great product for me. Two others just would not work for me. Azor gave me a flushed face and swollen ankles in the beginning, but that has subsided quite a bit now. Also have less urination too, but does not seem to affect my health in any way. Just make sure you tell your doctor of any side effects you get.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): After trying multiple medicines for high blood pressure over the course of 10 years I was given a prescription for Azor and saw improvements almost immediately. Before Azor my BP was average 160-175/120, with Azor I am consistently 117/76-80.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): I have been dealing with very high blood pressure for ten years. 220/120. Leading to many trips into the cardiac unit and eventually a stroke in 2008. My family doctor tried me on samples of Azor and within weeks my blood pressure was down to 120/70. I was so happy that something finally worked.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): For two years I was using Benicar. It was working fine until I started to get allergic reaction to it. I tried other high blood pressure medicines after that. They did not control my high blood pressure symptoms very well. Finally my doctor let me try Azor. I would be stressed but the blood pressure would be normal. Azor has been keeping my blood pressure reading normal like 110/70 for the past two years. Unfortunately I'm trying to get pregnant and now trying a different high blood pressure medicine, and the new medicine is not working so well as Azor.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): Azor has worked great for me, taking my blood pressure from 240/120 to 130/70. The only side effect I have found is that it leaves a metallic taste in my mouth at times. I can deal with that for the great work it does for my BP.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): Too soon to tell but noticed immediate sense of well being. Better sleep (>apnea), less frequent urination, but now I see that is one side effect. Also noted feet swelling in first 3 days, but that may be attributable to dietary factors. Overall a very observable increase in energy.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): BEST MEDICINE I'VE TAKEN IN THE PAST 15 YEARS. MAKES ME A LITTLE DIZZY AT TIMES BUT IS CONTROLLABLE.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): I'm glad to hear Azor is working well for people and I must add that it works wonderfully for me as well. The only side effect I have from it so far after 6 months is sort of a good relaxed feeling throughout my body. My blood pressure (BP) was averaging 180/110, sometimes very close to 200/110. Though some people have no symptoms at all with high BP I certainly did; I felt awful, very anxious, had migraine type headaches, small nosebleeds and knew something was wrong with me but didn't know what. I eventually felt so horrible I went to the emergency room and that%u2019s how I found out I had high BP. I thought because of my age (35) and good health and weight that a diagnosis of high BP was going to floor me but this medicine changed that. While in the hospital getting stabilized we tried 4 different medications which were not very effective. I found a general practitioner the next day and Azor was the first drug he put me on. The following day my readings were 130/85 and within 2 days down to 105/65 to 115/75! That was 6 months ago and my readings are consistently in that range except for a very rare reading in the high 120's/80's. I have energy again, I have no headaches or nosebleeds, I'm not anxious, and I feel human again. I can%u2019t put it into words though how much better I feel with a healthy blood pressure range. Thank goodness for Azor, it has made a major difference for me and the quality of my life. I wish you all good health and hope you have continued success with this medication. If you are browsing this page looking for medications to talk to your doctor about, don%u2019t forget to mention Azor, it might be the one that is right for you too.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): My blood pressure averaged 160/110. This was the first medicine I was prescribed for high blood pressure, and the next day I started getting readings in the 120/80 range and have been normal ever since. I have not had one side effect from this medicine in 3 months now.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): I started using Azor 10/40 after my blood pressure was consistently 190/120. I take 1 a day and get readings as low as 108/65, but usually stay at the 115/75 range. What an awesome product. All this after using 7 different drugs to get one to work.

Azor (amlodipine/ olmesartan): I had pretty consistent high BP readings. When saw doctor, it was 177/110. He prescribed Azor, and in 6 hours I was down to 130/85. A MIRACLE TO ME. Thanks for this great product, no side effects after almost a year.
