"I started using Trandolapril/Verapamil in my 40s. I am now in my mid 70's. I started having problems in the past 12 months - nausea, dizzy spells, and nearly passing out when I took showers. I would have to lay down halfway through my showers until I could get back in the shower to finish. I was given nausea pills and stronger stomach pills, but my symptoms didn't go away. Finally, I had to find a new endocrinologist and she said that the blood pressure pill, Trandolapril/Verapamil 4/240 mg, was too strong for me to be taking. I was sent to a cardiologist who also agreed that it was too strong for my age. She took me off Trandolapril/Verapamil and the Potassium supplement that I had to take with it. I am now on a lower blood pressure prescription and I no longer have the problems I was experiencing. What a relief! I used to feel nauseated all the time and mostly just stayed home. I hope this helps someone older."

Trandolapril / verapamil "I was on this drug for many years. I took the 4 mg dose 2x and sometimes 3x a day, without any problems. I did get skin sensitivity, but that is genetic, as my daughter also has it. I found the drug more effective taken with the diuretic Bendroflumethiazide, up to 5 mg daily, but this caused gout eventually. To be honest, this is a good drug, given that I've tried many combinations of blood pressure medicines."

Trandolapril / verapamil "I have no evident side effects. However, I get flushed very quickly when I am out in the sun, even for the shortest time period. I seem to burn faster also."
