For High Blood Pressure "Started telmisartan in the morning and had to come home from work, due to a headache, being agitated, and had trouble with vision. Took my BP, and it was 145/106. Rested, and now it is normal, and I feel better except for the lingering headache. I will take it at night and see if that helps with side effects."

For High Blood Pressure "I was on Coversyl for high blood pressure for a few years. Doing a fairly decent job. Then I was switched to telmisartan 40 mg because I have pulmonary fibrosis to rule out the cough associated with this condition to my BP med. I was put on telmisartan and I feel lousy. My legs feel like they weigh a ton, my sinus issues are magnified, dizziness is present and I get these headaches which are hard to get rid of. Not to mention irritability, sleeplessness, and confusion. I'm taking myself off. I'd rather have the disease than the cure."

Telmisartan for High Blood Pressure "Micardis has stabilized my blood pressure. I can't take the Micardis with HCT because I have had problems with my kidneys. I do feel less patient and irritable to my wife and kids."

Telmisartan for High Blood Pressure "Soon after starting Micardis, I suffered from dizziness, nausea, irritability, and I had no energy. It continued, then I started experiencing shortness of breath. I was told by my doctor it was not the medication. I went to a cardiologist, and she kept me on it and put me on Imdur. Then severe headaches occurred. I'm now going natural and taking my chances."
