"This drug caused my heart and pulse to go out of control as well as nausea and at one point numbness in my calves and knees. The heart beating was so terrible I went to the emergency room. I also felt tingling throughout my scalp."

"Caused severe swelling of my feet and tingling like with a diabetic condition. With so many complaints of the side effects, I don't understand why this is still on the market. Is it being prescribed solely because of perks to doctors to prescribe it ?"

"I had been on 10mg of Norvasc for years. After seeing my primary care doctor in January, she suggested I try Exforge. My bp was 170/80. Taking 5/160, made me feel suck to the stomach, dizzy and I had developed an itch."
