For High Blood Pressure "Have never felt the same since being on Edarbi. Numbers went low, so went on half dose. Still low. The drug made me tired and totally fatigued. Lightheaded, also jittery feeling. I stopped it a week ago and hope it leaves my system soon. Also had tummy problems with it."

For High Blood Pressure "Active in my 40s and tried other BPs, but they never worked well. Tried Edarbi by cutting the 40 mg in half and taking 20 mg/day, and BP plummeted to 120/70. It has a much greater affinity for the angiotensin receptor and for a much longer period than any other ARB, which is why it is the best, thus, you don't need much for it to work. Side effects are dizziness if you bend over for a bit and then stand up. You can get briefly lightheaded, so you need to not move to make sure you don't fall down if that happens. Other than that, none, but I also take half the lowest dose."

For High Blood Pressure "This Edarbi is the 3rd medicine they have tried on me. Bad side effects. By far, this is the worst. I thought it was going to be the end of me!!!! Numbers went very low, 90/50, so went on half dose. Still low. The drug made me tired and totally fatigued. Lightheaded, also jittery feeling. Nausea, muscle spasms very severe. My pulse/heart rate would spike up to 155!!! The severe side effects did not begin until about the 5th week. Headaches were unbearable!! This drug has threatened my life!!! I stopped it, I'd rather take my chances with fasting and natural remedies!!"
