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...

BP did not lower after almost three weeks. Headaches. Numbness and tingling all along my right side - lasts for 1 to 5 minutes, and it happens different times during the day. I'll be going to the MD today. Don't know if I can blame the drug for the numbness, but I do know it has not helped lower BP at all.

After taking Azor (5/40mg)for 8 weeks, suddenly developed itching, tingling and burning of upper legs to above knee. Turned out to be hives. Received an anti-itch cream from dermatologist which did help. After 6 weeks of itching asked doctor if I could stop taking; he said no and prescribed an anti-histamine (again for itching). Decided on my own to stop using Azor and within 6 days everything disappeared. Have been given Tekturna (300mg/25mg) to take. After reading viewers reviews have decided NOT to take this medication and will stick to the treadmill for exercise. Only time will tell. This is getting scary! Read More Read Less

While I am taking more than just this med, I seem to have some abdominal bloating, kidney (?) pain, and am tired. Am not sure if this med is at issue, but plan to check it out.

Highest BP = 204/142 Current BP Average = 138/92 I've been on Azor 10/40 for 6 months. Was getting bad headaches and overall exhaustion before finding out I was in a hypertensive crisis for almost 2 months. No idea what brought this on (30yrs old, fairly healthy, in decent shape). Started on Azor 10/40 and another BP med. BP dropped too low and the other med was stopped. Current BP isn't where it should be, so I'm going in for a follow up visit shortly. I get very lightheaded, but only when getting up from a sitting or kneeling position too quickly (worst 1-3 hours after taking the medicine). No other side effects that I'm aware of.Read More Read Less

When I first started taking AZOR, I felt week, lots of headaches, blood pressure was still really jumpy. But I think we have it under control now I take 5mg/40mg twice a day. I would say give it a chance. I'm 35 and I have been on several dif. BP meds and this one is working for me now.
