"Took 1 8 mg Cardura daily. Experienced dizziness and nausea for the first 3 days but later adjusted to the medication and maintained pressure around 120/80. On doctor's advice, Cardura was discontinued and replaced with alternative medication due to excessively fast pulse/heart rate up to 100 bpm after 6 months on Cardura."
