Was taking 2 pills a day for HBP before beginning azor. The azor brought my blood pressure down to readings like 107/70. The first couple of weeks on it were pretty good some dizziness, heart racing, etc. but nothing I couldn't live with to achieve those numbers. However, beginning between the second and third week of treatment, I began to notice that within an hour or two of taking my azor I w...

Tried Diovan, bad side effects. Tried Lotrel, caused sexual problems including ED. Azor has lowered pressure, increased libido and sexual function. No side effects to report. I feel great!

My blood pressure started at 180/110. I took EXFORGE and it made me so sick I couldn't get out of bed. My doctor switched me to AZOR 10/20 and my pressure is normally 120/80. As far as the side effects, from time to time I will have light headiness,mild chest pains, dizziness, numbness in my arm and tingling. I have had EKG'S done, stress test...etc...The side effects don't happen everyday but they have happened enough. On my next Dr's visit I will discuss this with him and maybe he will lower my dosage from 10/20 to the next lowest dosage. Read More Read Less

My blood pressure was in the range of 140 to 150 over 85 to 90 using my old medication. Since taking Azor my blood pressure has come down to 120 to 130 over 70 to 80, however if I continue taking my pill every day, my pressure drops drastically, as low as 80 over 60. This drop has me really concerned and if I don't take a pill for three or four days, my pressure will remain around 125 over 75. I don't understand why my pressure fluctuates so much using Azor 50.

This medication did lower my blood pressure, however it gave me flu like symptoms and made me very sick. The same as with Amlopodine, I developed a deep wet cough. I became so sick, I was bedridden, before I could get it out of my system and be done with it. Thankfully, I have a doctor that listened to me and didn't jerk me around when I identified the cause of my flu-like symptoms. In fact, he said he has seen this before and stopped the Azor that day. It takes up to 2 weeks for it leave the bloodstream and the flu like symptoms to go away. Doctor had to give me a steroid shot and a B-12 shot to help me get up out of bed, I have felt so poorly from Azor! Symptoms are not worth it! I'd rather kill over with a heart attack than have the flu the rest of my life! Just being dramatic here, in case any passion of my fury was missed! :) My doctor has asked me to try Divoan HCT. Will start that tomorrow. Read More Read Less

Started on 10/40, and for three days had worst headache, dizzy, etc. Dr. switched me to 5/40, and seems to be working well. BP down, no side effects as yet (week 3)
