Kept BP down, but developed chronic dry cough and dreadful acid reflux, which i was told was due to gastric bacterial infection. After 9 months I inadvertently changed bp meds (moved to another country), and all symptoms disappeared. After 2 years problem free, came back home, went back onto this evil drug and cough and reflux started all over again. Diagnosed the link between meds and problems myself. Doctors like to keep you sick! 11 days off this drug and back to normal. So excited

very effective in keeping BP down. Nasty cough, thought that may be due to Covid that I had a few months ago. Very tired all the time.

It worked for me fine until after couple of years taking in it. I developed very bad side effects. Dry cough and very bad acid reflux for months I notice my vision at some days became blurry. I will try to take it at lower dose 2mg and see what happens.

Had some side effects at the beginning then it eased off and then later it got worse and then to the point I couldn't take the pain. Every possible side effect you could get I got and then some. This stuff is pure poison in my books. I wouldn't give it to my worse't enemy. It's like a living HELL.

I have been taking this med ( 4mg) since my heart valve replacement. it was a switch from Losartan which was no longer available. I have experienced almost all of the side effects, however the three most bothersome are: joint pain, dry cough, and persistent heart burn.

More noticeable lowering in BP by increasing exercise and cutting out salts completely, Dry cough was very noticeable and at times gave way to gagging and throwing up. Already have seen DR and switched meds.

Caused me to get a persistent dry cough after one week of taking the drug. After 2 years I got swollen lips all of a sudden. One year after, was diagnosed with lung cancer. Read about this drug and the links it has to lung cancer.

Due to a family history of high blood pressure, I ended up on this medication - at the lowest 2 mgs level. I took it for two weeks and it did the trick in terms of bringing my blood pressure down to normal levels. However, I developed a nasty dry cough and had to start carrying water with me to stop the cough, including through the night. I also started getting incredible heartburn. One night I ate a salad shortly before going to bed. I was in agony all night - it felt like I had a volcano in my stomach and upper digestive tract. This medication has know caused me to have to start using Gavascon regularly to deal with heartburn and indigestion - a problem I have never had previously. I have started becoming afraid of eating, despite staying away from foods known to cause heartburn. I have asked my doctor to change meds and have just started on Ibesartan 75 mgs. Fingers crossed!Read More Read Less

High blood pressure. Brought it down but not quite enough. Another week or two and then we'll see. No idea what the underlying issue is yet so this may just not be the right drug for me.

I was prescribed this drug to keep my blood pressure below 140/80. I take this drug as Coversly Arginine plus (2.5 perindopril, 0.65 indapamide) It has kept my blood pressure down to target
