User Reviews for valsartan oral

I went from 160/100 to 120/80 and I feel so much better. What else can I say, this drug worked for me.

I have taken Diovan for 4 years and had good control of HTN with BID dosage, However, I have LE edema, mild ear fullness, ringing. This week I have developed intermitant vertigo when changing postions, especially when lying down, with mild nausea.

BP seems to be remaining high even I take 160 mg at night with Teneron in the morning!

Works great with no side effects. Recommended by my Dr. because it has no male side effects, and I have been very well satisfied.

I take 80 mg twice per day and this drug has in combination with others has greatly reduced my BP.

WEAKNESS IN LEGS, TINGLING, COLD FEET, SWELLING OF FEET AND CALVES.

migraine headache

Does not have alot of side affects. Very little.

A generak weakness-feelings of weakness from the hips down-shortness of breath and all activities lead to an overwhelming feeling of weakness and discomfort.

50 mg for 9 weeks. Within 2 days extreme fatigue, could not run up stairs anymore or exeercise,intermitent headaches. Effective to lower blood pressure but later fits of cough, difficulty breathing, left chest and shoulder pains, racing heartbeat, constant headache, face swelling, total loss of smell and ability to taste food, fullness in the ears causing slightly reduced hearing and occasional loud tinnitus, slightly blurry vision, shaking hands, night sweating, constant anxiety. All problems increasing in intensity. Stopped the medication. Everything back to normal within 3 days. Was then put on Norvasc. See review on 4/3/09.Read More Read Less

Have been on Diovan HCT for over 5 years with no side effects. Had previously used Lisinopril with a resulting nagging cough that kept my wife and myself up all night. I see there were a few complaints about too low BP on this drug, but with high dosages. You should tell your Dr about this and try a lower dose. I am a 49 year old male 6'2" 275 lb and only take an 80/12.5 dose.

Must be taken every morning. Suggest a dated container to keep record for each day.

Great treatment option for the vast majority of people. Less side effects than an ace. Very affordable and more research behind this drug then most others on the market. I would recommend this to anyone with hypertension

Have used ths medication for 2 years 1 80mg pill each morning and my BP is consistantly at 110/75 -- vs 150/95 without BP treatment -- previous use of Ace Blocker was less stable redings

This medication lowered my BP to 106/64 within 1 week of starting it at 160 mg. I was weak and unable to perform my normal walking and Jazzercise activities and I am now trying Benicar 10 mg. I had previously switched from Benazapril 10 mg which actually worked better for me but caused a severe cough. I'm hoping Benicar is the answer. I was not happy with the majority of comments on Benicar but there were a few very happy users so I'm hopeful.

I have H.B. preshure but not as high until I started using this new med Valsartan. yes I had a spike of 160/94 - 47 after missing a dose (one a day of 160 mg).

seems to keep blood pressure down if I wacth what I eat
