For High Blood Pressure "The cure is worse than the condition. After going on the drug perindopril for a few weeks, I had terrible backache. I could hardly walk. I thought I would have to quit my job. Pins and needles in my hands, strange dreams, tiredness, stomach, and abdominal ache. My blood pressure was okay, though. After spending a small fortune on physiotherapy and diagnostics, I finally worked out it was this drug. I threw it straight in the bin."

For High Blood Pressure "Perindopril 10 mg for like 3 months. About 3 weeks into it, had really bad back pain. Didn’t think it was this medication till like 2 months after, all kinds of suffering. If you have bad pain and it started right after taking this medication."
