For High Blood Pressure "I started taking Exforge 2 months ago and feel terrible. I have severe dizziness, palpitations, and lethargy. Doctor wants me to continue taking medication, but I’ve stopped. It makes me feel like I’m having a heart attack."

For High Blood Pressure "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. After taking this, I have palpitations in my chest, but it does regulate my blood pressure."
