For Heart Failure "Developed over several weeks, two side effects: 1. A dry, irritating cough, which worsened with drinking water, so went through several lozenges/candies to relieve. The cough disappeared within two days of terminating Mavik. 2. Also developed congested airway/lungs, and this required several weeks to clear up after termination of Mavik, took a good Vitamin C source to assist recovery."

For Heart Attack "I've been on Mavik 4 mg for 8 years now, seemed to work for about 4 years. Recently, I've been having spikes of my systolic upwards of 181/81, mostly late afternoon and in the evening. My face gets red and feels really hot, sometimes feels puffy. I've been to the emergency several times, and they don't seem bothered by this, no treatments, just send me home after 8 hours or so and check my BP maybe twice. It appears not to be working now. I'm seeing a cardiologist in 2 weeks, so let's see if my meds will change. Seems hard to get answers as to getting new meds or upping Mavik to keep my pressure down. What to do next?"

For High Blood Pressure "I used the medication for 1 month and had to stop it because I could no longer manage my bowel movements. I then fell into a deep depression for 6 months. I do not recommend this medication to anyone."
