"Does anyone else have bad indigestion with irbesartan? I have some other mild symptoms I can manage, but this other pain is not good. Had every heart check you can have, and my heart is good, but blood pressure was up a bit, and they are using it to support my kidney as I have type 2 diabetes. Not sure if it's working, though. Been on it for about 9 months."

Irbesartan "I've been taking Avapro to prevent diabetic kidney disease, as I only have half of one kidney left after two bouts of kidney cancer. So far, so good. The Avapro has lowered my blood pressure also - sometimes goes a little too low, which is when I feel tired. Other than that, I have no noticeable side effects. However, my doctor will have to find some other medication to protect my remaining partial kidney because my insurance company won't pay for Avapro anymore - even though my doctor says nothing else works as well."
