User Reviews for Azor oral

caused swelling of legs and ankles,also cramps

I was hospitalized for high blood pressure readings (170/130). My doctor put me on Azor and Maxide and my pressure readings within a week were 110/88. I did have a high pulse reading, however, the my pressures are definitely lowered.

I'VE BEEN TAKING AZOR FOR OVER 6 MONTHS. NO SIDE EFFECTS. WENT FROM 145/90 TO 110/65 IN A MATTER OF DAYS. DOCTOR ASKED IF I WANTED TO CHANGE. NO WAY!

Having severe itching with hives at 8-12 hours daily on dose of 5/20 after 10/40m dropped B/P but caused severe ankle swelling

Have taken Azor 5mg/20mg ,for over a month very good no side effect.P B Down 126 over 61

i just started taking this med, so i can't really say anything about it yet.

After the first day of taking Azor I noticed an significant increase in my blood pressure. I took my pressure last night and it was 160/105 pulse 107. I took it again this morning and it was 166/107 pulse 113. My dr suggested I take Azor along with Trianterene to lower my pressure. At this point I considering not taking either of them. I have had constant pressure headaches, dizzyness and continued sweats. I thought if I reduced my stress level at home and work that it would make a difference. As of today 04/22/08 I feel "sick". The uneasy feeling I have is really scary. I don't know if anyone else has experienced these or similar symptoms. If so what did you do.Read More Read Less

Blood pressure lowering effect doesn't last through the day. Only effective at the higher dose. I experienced no side effects.

From day 1 that I took this medication I was extremely ill. I felt like I had the flu. As soon as I came of the medication I started feeling back to normal. I experienced terrible side effects with this medication. Make sure your Dr educates you fully on what the side effects can be.

I had 149/99 and 98 heartbeat when the doctor started me on this med- Azor 5/20.The next week 130/98 and heartbeat of 72. Switched to 5/40 and had avery hard week of weakness, sleeplessness and pressure on my chest an hour after taking it. Yesterday 120/98 and 68 heartbeat. The Dr. switched me to 10/40 and I fell asleep early after taking medicine but woke up from 2 AM to 5 AM. and dizzy & sick to my stomach. Is this correct for me?????

On the sixth day, I experienced a feeling of not feeling well. this was acconpanied with a headache, tighnes in my chest, erratic bloodpressure, eratic heartbeat and an abnormaly hihg pulse rate. My blodpressure upon getting up from a laying down position fell to 95/80 few minutes later it had risen to 170/95. My pulse rte was at 101/min ane was eratic. Pulse and a space, pulse and double beat. And I expereinced dizzyness. Will be talking ot my doctor in the morning since most of my symptoms appear to be in the serious range.Read More Read Less

I started to get inflamed varicose veins in my legs. I still have a patch is this a result of this drug.

I have only take this med for 2 days and the effects were awful blinding headaches that i thought I was going to have an anurisim. No asprin could help me it lasted thru out the day the worst of it was in the evening when at 2:30am the headaches started and continued for at least lhr after I took Advil or stronger. I alos have nauseau and dizzeyness.

Do this medication has a generic. the reason I am asking is that I have high blood pressure, when I went to her my pressure was a little high, she though maybe that need a change, I have ben taking it for two-day now. I am trying to get as much info I can. The one she gave me for sample have AZOR (amlodipine and olmestran medoxomil) is there a lot of different in the one you have and one she gave me (medoxomil). Thank you Reather Thomas

I got my upper reading down from 140 Systolic to 120 in 10days, got off toprolxl and lower hctz doseby 25mgs, potassium sparing water pill. No side effects at all.I had been on too high hctz(50) for over 2 yrs.Less depression with this non-selective alpha blocker,presently 20-5 doze once a day

I keep getting sinus headaches

Blinding headaches, super-rapid hard-pounding heartbeats. Insomnia. When I could sleep, vivid nightmares. Twinging pains in my neck/head. Odd pulling sensation in my brain. I'd lie in bed afraid the next beat would be the last. This had the exact opposite effect that it should have. My BP never went below 170/100 and would actually go UP when I took the meds.
