Been on 10/320 for over a year. Has controlled a stubborn high blood pressure to a manageable 125 -. Have cough, numbness which no one will attribute to the drug.

Been on exforge alone 5/165 for 1 week. Was scared I would not be able to control blood pressure, was on 40 mg Prinivil and 5 mg Norvasc before. Legs swelled on Norvasc but blood pressure was 120/80. Stopped Norvasc, blood pressure went to 140/95. No side effects with this dose of Exforge so far. Blood pressure consistent at 123/82 or so. Only taking this one pill once a day and it is working. Will update as I go.

Been on Exforge 10/320 for few months after being on straight Norvasc for 7 years - switched to 5/320 after too many dizzy spells. Now, tired - fall asleep at odd times - exhausted easily - sweat excessively when hot - blood pressure starting to stay up too much - chronic rhinitis with cough. Looking for something else.

I have taken many antihypertensive medications with an array of side effects none of which any of the 3 doctors I've seen discussed with me. Pseudo lupus is common with Exforge. Cough, bronchospasms, cold symptoms,sweating, feel exhausted, tired

I have used it successfully after not having luck with Atacand after many years of being on that. I have had no ill side effects to speak of. I am very pleased. Although it is a bit pricey.

My dad took it and he had heart palpitations, swelling, reddening ears and face, and chest tightening. He stopped taking it and switched back to his old medicines.

I have been taking Exforge with another medication for about 7 months. It has worked well for me. I recently have had some weight gain and swelling in my hands and lower legs.

I have been using this medication for a couple of months and yes it is pretty expensive even with insurance. This medicine controls my blood pressure but I have numbness in both legs and swelling in my legs and hands. And after taking this I have palpitations in my chest but it does regulate my blood pressure.
