For High Blood Pressure "I've had high blood pressure for years. On Thursday, my blood pressure was 206/102. Started this on Friday, and the following Thursday got rechecked, and it was 132/88. I was in tears, my blood pressure hasn't been this low in years. No more headaches, dizziness, blurry vision. I'm so thankful for Azor, it just might have saved my life."

For High Blood Pressure "I have had elevated blood pressure for a number of years. I was on Avapro 300 mg the past few years, and it was working okay, but I began to have episodes of 150/100 and sometimes higher, with occasional headaches. It seems after a while my tolerance for any BP medication builds, and they start to become less effective. My doctor recently gave me a trial of Azor 40/5 to get my numbers under better control, and within a week I am running around a consistent 120/80 with no noticeable side effects. I also have begun to notice better sleep and easier concentration at work, as some others noted. I am hoping the success continues with medication!"

For High Blood Pressure "My cardiologist prescribed Azor over Enalapril. In less than a week, I ended up at the hospital with several headaches, tremendous constipation, fainting spells, etc. Azor is extremely expensive; it might do the job of controlling the blood pressure. At the same time, it gives the patient 5,000 different side effects. It should be taken off the market. Thank you."

For High Blood Pressure "I have been on Azor for 7 days. I also started 60 mg of Cymbalta the same night. I have had severe headaches from the time I get up until the time I go to bed, also diarrhea sometimes 4 times a day. Azor did stop the pulsating heartbeat sounds I was having in my ears. I will see my doctor in a few days to discuss what is happening and if I should continue this medication. I previously was on Cymbalta with no side effects, so I don't believe my symptoms are from that medication."
