I have been taking the lower dose pill of Indapamide for over 5 yrs. with good results and no problems. I am sure to eat plenty of vegetables to keep potassium levels up, and usually drink a small can of low sodium V-8 which is very high in potassium.

Been on this medicine for 1 week. Tremendous leg and back pain, worse at night. Not helping my BP much. Don't know if I will continue taking it or not as I am having trouble walking.

I've been taking Indapamide 2.5 since April. Originally, my blood pressure began to be too low and I was feeling light-headed and faint. My doctor had me cut my pills in half and I haven't had any further problems with low blood pressure or feelings of light-headedness or faintness. So far, so good;-)

Suffered from nausea and a dizzy sensation for the first 6 days, then day 7 I all but fainted. The doctor seemed to think it was maybe too effective for me and caused my blood pressure to plummet but in truth my readings were still at a reasonable level (but still more than they should be)

I am over 80 years old. I was on this medication for 3 years with good results. Unfortunately I developed severe Basil Carcinoma on my face. The surgery being done to correct this and burn off some of it with liquid nitrogen left my face looking like a road map. I read an AMHA and CMHA bulletin warning of this problem last year in people over 60 (long term use). I threw it away and the cancer went into almost immediate remission. Doctors were amazed at the results. This might not be a problem for others but absolutely worked wonders for me.Read More Read Less

My doctor prescribed this to me after telling me my bloodbpressure was 180 (I was there for flu and a headache). I happened to have been measuring my blood pressure lately and it was always in 'perfect' range. But I thought doctor knows best and I have used up my 2 week 2.5mg prescription nlw. My blood pressure appeared between average and sometimes a bit higher than before when I started. So I dont know what to conclude, except that my blood pressure was lower before I started taking this. Or maybe its the flu causing the the higher than (my) normal readings.Read More Read Less

After 6 weeks of taking, I had a seizure lasting 5 mins. Never had one before. Now under investigation, waiting for MRI and EEG. CT scan shows nothing adnormal and bloods are clear. Still on tablets but think this may be the cause as I still feel unwell,with pains at back of my head and shoulders.

Taking this drug for thyroid related edema and history of kidney stones. Doctor says it will protect my kidneys from stones. Works great and I've had zero side effects.

I have been on this for just over a week. This is my third medication for resistant high blood pressure.. surprisingly blood pressure dropped to normal range quite instantly. However I am dog tired and my muscles ache so can't lift my arms/legs. I am hoping these side effects wear off coz after 9 months I am happy to find a blood pressure treatment that works so just persevering at the moment.

Recently have been having evening edema in both legs, ankles and feet, more so on the left side than the right. Not sure if related to medication or not, but have noticed others having similar symptoms.

I have been on this drug for about six months now. So far so good. However, I have developed headaches. I am trying to figure out if it this medicine or allergies. Hard to tell. I will continue taking.

I have been taking Indapamide 2.5mg for 6 months. It has not regulated my BP to normal and after getting my 6 month blood test done my A1c went from 5.7 to 6.5. If you take this durg keep an eye on you blood sugar levels.

With having a sulfa allergy, i wasn't initially even started on any diuretics. This one was added when my bp was remaining high despite maxing out on other meds. With only 10 pound weight loss and adding this med, i've eliminated and reduced other meds. i am very pleased with the addition of this drug. it has helped me reduce/eliminate others.
