For High Blood Pressure "I have been taking it for 10 days and am shocked by the side effects - starting with very dizzy, continuous headache, very tired. Warns against doing anything needing alertness! How can people in full-time jobs take this? Then in the last days, developed a runny nose, sore throat, and now for 3 days, I have trouble getting my breath - even just talking on the phone. So I am now coming off it - cutting the dose in half for a few days (dose was only 1.25). Unimaginable to take more of it. I take felodopine as well as read that it's not necessarily a good idea to take it with that drug too. Pretty bad."

For High Blood Pressure "I have taken BP medications for 10 years. I decided it was time to get my act together. I changed to a healthy lifestyle. I eat healthy, exercise, and lost 120 lbs. My old BP medication worked great, but due to my lifestyle change, it got to the point where it needed to be adjusted due to low BP. My Dr. put me on this, and it has wrecked me. I have chest pains, nausea, cold feet and hands, and lethargy. I thought I was dying."

For High Blood Pressure "I have been taking this medicine every morning for the past six months, and it has reduced my blood pressure from 155/105 to 138/88. It has a beta-blocker and makes me feel calmer shortly after taking it. Although, I find it harder to get going with my cardiovascular exercise. My doctor recently added an additional drug, amlodipine (calcium channel blocker), to my treatment regimen. My heart rate went down to a constant 42 beats per minute, which made me very tired and dizzy."

For High Blood Pressure "Started this medication about 10 years ago. 5 mg worked well, but gained 60 pounds, then started feeling like my heart was skipping beats. After 5 years, Doc put me on 10 mg. That stopped the heartbeat thing and my BP is normal. Then I developed diabetes, ED problems, ringing in the ears, dry mouth, tired all the time, but no rapid heartbeat, BP normal. I am torn, I would love to get back to a normal sex life. Male, 60 years old."

Bisoprolol / hydrochlorothiazide for High Blood Pressure "I have been taking this medication for about 2 weeks now. It has lowered my blood pressure tremendously, but the side effects are great for me. I am so tired ALL day. This is very unusual for me because I do not sleep during the day. I have found myself laying down about 11 a.m. for a nap and not waking up until 4 or 5 p.m. Not like me at all."
