I've been using Avapro for about 4 years with great success.

This medication appears to be designed for use by men. After reading all of the reviews this medication only works well for men (other then the ED)then for women, in general. There should be a BP med specifically designed for women with little or no side effects.

Medication has worked to lower blood pressure but has caused severe ED and almost complete loss of sexual desire.

It can have a terrible after taste and caused a loss of sexual interest and sexual dysfunction after several years of being effective. Sexual side effects are recent.

This medication has effectively lowered my bloodpressure. I had some slight tiredness at first but adjusted to the medication quickly and was back to normal in about 2 weeks.
