For High Blood Pressure "A week of hell on this drug. Sun sensitivity, numbness in my calves as if wading through water, headaches, dry mouth, dry eyes, soreness behind eyeballs, nausea, extreme heartbeats, high pulse rate, no appetite, weight loss, dehydration, cold clammy skin, uncontrollably sweating, hoarseness. Doctor took me off immediately when blood pressure fell uncontrollably to 87/47. Once I stopped, I felt like a new person."

For High Blood Pressure "I had been on 10 mg 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 sick to the stomach, dizzy, and I had developed an itch."
