While it seems to be effective I have developed a terrible metallic taste in my mouth which makes my food taste awful and drinking water almost unbearable.

Comment:
I was just diagnosed with high blood pressure and was given Tiazac XC. I had major side effects including non-stop dizziness, heartburn, migraines and nausea. I was on the medication for 7 weeks and finally stopped because I was miserable. Definitely not the right medication for me.

Comment:
I was taking this medication for 10 days and then developed a hive like rash. It ended up covering most of my body with raised welts on my arms, chest, and face. Discontinued taking drug but ended up in hospital. Was given a large dose of anithistamine. It has been 4 days and I still have the rash all over my body but not as severe.
