For High Blood Pressure "The medicine did exactly what it was supposed to do. My blood pressure was lowered, but not without very bad migraines, dizziness, and constipation. I've been taking this for a little over a month in hopes that my headaches would disappear or at least not be so severe. Well, they are still just as painful as the first day I experienced the headaches and dizziness. In the trash they are going because the side effects aren't worth it. I'm so over it!"

For High Blood Pressure "Please do not take this medication. The side effects are horrible: stomach pain, nausea, vertigo, and migraines. I have experienced all for days after I stopped, and to top it off, anxiety 24/7. I just wish I had read these reviews before starting the med."

For High Blood Pressure "Chlorthalidone gave me horrible migraines, ear pressure, and intermittent episodes of confusion and loss of balance. It did significantly lower my BP, but the side effects weren’t worth it."

For High Blood Pressure "It worked well at decreasing my systolic BP but gave me horrible migraines. I also had pins and needles in my feet, and some days I felt really weak and out of it, like I had an electrolyte problem."
