candesartan: I have high blood pressure(BP), about 140/100 and after several studies the doctor assigned me Xiletil (Candesartan Cilexetil). After 1 week, my BP dropped to 130/80 and 1 month after to 120/80. I truly recommmend this product. So far it hasn't caused any side effects on me.

Atacand (candesartan): Did not help blood pressure at all. Made pulse go high-106 at one point. Went back to Cozaar.
