For High Blood Pressure "Horrible medicine. I had only been on this for 5 days, but now they are in the garbage. The side effects I have had are severe. Sharp jabbing pains under the rib cage, very bad back and joint pain, EXTREME tiredness, headache, and severe cotton mouth. I can't believe doctors still prescribe this. To the doctors: read patient reviews and warn your patients prior to prescribing! Instead of using this medication, try eating three kiwi fruits a day and a couple of glasses of beet juice. That does a better job of lowering blood pressure with no side effects and is overall better for your health. It worked for me!"

Chlorthalidone for High Blood Pressure "My average BP 125 to 145 by 65 to 90. After taking these 50 mg and 25 mg Hygroton tablets under doctor's advice, my body became very itchy, with rash and hives, especially around my neck, back, and ears. Also, pins and needles in my ankles and tiredness during the day."

For High Blood Pressure "While the medication seems to work, the side effects are unacceptable. My dose is 25 mg. It leaves me very lightheaded all day and with absolutely no energy at all. I spend most of the day in bed. My muscles become very fatigued with minimal exertion, and I develop rapid heartbeat and respirations."
