I have been on this B/P med for 4 months. Excellent med keeps my B/P at a constant low ranging from 90/70 to 106/62. Where previous it was HIGH ranging from 170/100 to 190/106. I too experience some lightheadness, some tiredness and dizziness. However, I recently found out through a fasting blood test that this med may be affecting my kindey functions. After reviewing the possible/rare side effect...
I have been taking this pill for 5 days and my BP is still up 141/112.

I have been taking tribenzor for 3 months and my blood pressure has been much better. I have leg muscle cramps at different times of the day and swollen ankles. But overall, it has helped lower my blood pressure.

Only been taking for 120 days, but BP is best ever, actually a little low. No side-effects that I am aware of yet.

My blood pressure was shy high before I started taking this drug. Now, my blood pressure has been slightly lower than normal for the last two years. Great medication!

I started taking this medication in September of 2011. By October I started experiencing extreme shortness of breathe. By December of 2011 I was experiencing chest pain, swelling in ankles and legs and pain in shoulder and arms. I also started experiening muscle cramps and having no sex drive. Hair loss/thinning came a couple of months later. In 2013 I suffered a mild heart attack while on this medication. No longer taking Tribenzor and I am feeling a lot better since doctor took me off this medication. Read More Read Less

BP 120/70 now. My pulse became high within two days of taking Tribenzor. I was previously taking Bystolic, and others. I continued Bystolic low dose every other day with Tribenzor for two weeks to lower my pulse. My pulse is getting lower as I continue to take tribenzor alone.

My third review: I have been on tribenzor for 2 1/2 years now, the only lasting side effects I have had are leg cramps at night, caused by dehydration, just have to drink more water, can't be out in the sun for too long, results in easy burn and headaches,occasional shortness of breath, occasional constipation, once again have to drink more water. I have "not" had any hair loss. In 2 years I have lost and kept off 70 lbs., altered my diet, you should always take the pill with food. But the key here is always water. Keep hydrated, especially in summer, try to match input with output. Gatorade is a good supplement. In short the med works fine for me. You just have to help it by helping yourself, alter habits, diet and exercise. Good luck to all.Read More Read Less

I have been on this drug for almost 2 yrs. now and my blood pressure is doing well. I started off with 210/115 and it came down to 120/75 within a week. I experience a little dizzyness and it does bother my stomach in the morning after I take it and it does last for an hour or more.

I can't really rate the effectiveness, I took only ONE dose of this. It was the drug from "H." I was dizzy, had a headache, my eye balls ached, I had diarrhea and nausea and joint pain. Within a few days I had bronchitis and my shoulder hurt. The bronchitis and shoulder pain, which I thought was bursitis, took a couple of days to manifest. Everything else appeared within several hours and disappeared 24 to 30 hours after the dose. A horrible, horrible medication.

It works well at controlling my blood pressure, but I sometimes have numbness and tingling up and down both arms and across my chest. The numbness is accompanied by shortness of breath and dizziness. I also sometimes have trouble sleeping in spite of being on prescription sleeping pills (doxepin), which worked well before I started taking tribenzor.

After trying several medications this worked well in bringing down my BP. The problem is that after about a week I was so depressed I couldn't stand it. Stopped taking it and depression went away.

I have been on this medication for about a year. I cannot take the 40 mg dosage because of extreme dizziness but the lower dosage works well enough.
