How are you? Statins don't work to lower blood pressure, they are only used to help lower cholesterol, so it shouldn't cause any issues with your hypotension. But it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and joint/muscle aches. Is there anything else I can help with?

This medication is most commonly used to help treat high blood pressure and while there can be some risks associated with it, such as kidney damage, or failure, the thing that you need to remember is that it would be far more risky to let your blood pressure remain out of control, because that could lear to heart attack, congestive heart failure or stroke.

What is a good alternative medication for tekturna which is working well for black male 63 yrs old experiencing side effects of serious hives, swelling, and itching. ## That sounds like an allergic reaction, which could continue to get worse and become life threatening, so he needs to seek medical treatment. Then, he can discuss the issue with his doctor and they can prescribe an appropriate alternative. Are you sure it's due to the Tekturna? Does he take any other medications?

Can I take my expired clonidine 0.1mg patches as prescribed? What would happen if I do? I used to take these when I was WD from opiates. They worked great.

high bp meds do not help I am taking serrapeptese as well. I eat well and exercise. I have tried many meds for the high BP they do not work any suggestions would be helpful. ## Hello, Jodo! How are you? Have you ever tried a combination of medications? Sometimes more than being taken, at the same time, can help when a person is resistant to individual medications. Do you watch what you eat to keep your sodium intake as low as possible? If you're sodium sensitive, you will always have a problem, if you aren't careful about how much you take in each day. And do you get plenty of exercise? That is also vital to helping keep your blood pressure in the normal range and for cardiac function. ## I have been a cosistent exorcisor for the past thirty years, I walk two miles five days a w...

I began taking Coversyl 2MG (Perindopril Erbumine) around 10 days ago. For the first week symptoms of side effects were minor, lately I seem to fit in to a 0.3% group who exhibit Hypotension. Also dizziness, joint & muscle pain, easily and earlier tired, bouts of Diarrhea and so on. Since the mission of this medication seems noble, I would like to stay on it. 2MG is the lowest initial dosage. Does anyone know if the tiny tablet can be cut in half ? (Becomes 1MG?)

The doctor I went to for a TKA medical clearance prescribed the lowest dose for a BP problem I didn't know I had. Pain probably cause a lot of stress and I was more than 20 pounds heaver back then, which was about 4 months ago. The drug certainly did work to bring about a normal BP and another benefit is that heart rate is low like a champion athlete. Despite how well it works I wonder if I really need to keep taking this drug--e.g., maybe just take an aspirin a day. My feeling is that the drug has lowered my metabolism by about 500 calories a day so it's a good thing I've been using Lose It! keep track of calories. ## Hello, Mac! How are you doing? Glad that you got the blood pressure under control. However, you should not stop taking this medication, unless your doctor spe...

my friend has been using asomex and is now on amlo-denk 5 and seems not to be getting an erection anymore what can be done? ## Has your friend consulted his doctor? This contains the active ingredient Amlodipine and it can cause erectile dysfunction in some people that take it, so it may not be the right medication for him to use. There are other medications on the market that can be tried, which treat the same conditions. ## I have a Diabetes, can I take Amlo-Denk-5? ## Does a combination of Amlo-Denk 5 and Resilo H decrease sex drive in women?

Since taking this pill for high blood pressure for 6 months now my neck is very red & blotchey like sun burn & i was wandering if I should switch to another pill? ## Hi Carl, It sounds as if you may be having an allergic reaction to this medication, unless you are taking other medications that might be the culprit? How long have you been dealing with this? If it persists for longer than a few days, I definitely recommend calling your doctor and asking him if he knows what might be the cause. I have read that flushing (warmth, redness, or tingling under your skin) is a "less serious" side effect of the brand name Lotrel; which contains amlodipine besylate and benazepril hydrochloride. Therefore, it may just be a side effect of your medication. You can learn more about thi...

Hello! I was taking 5 mg. bystolic for 1 yr. until I experienced terrible side effects that I make me so disable to do anything and has been taken to the ER within 2 months period of time. My primary physician told me to stop taking it two months ago and try an alternative way of stabilizing my bp (as a trial and error first!) instead by enrolling at Zacharias Ganey Health Institute for a 10 week Course this summer. To make this story short, without taking bystolic now, my bp is normal ( lower than 130/80) everyday though it spike up once in a while to 200/ 110. However, I feel so much better and I can drive my car now BUT there are days I still feel nauseous esp. early in the morning when I got up and hasn't taken my breakfast yet or at times when I was outside the house or just si...
