I got this generic drug from WalMart last year manufactured by Merck. It was amazing. Then they switched to same generic drug manufactured by TEVA Pharmaceutical (from white oval shaped pills in a bottle to little green pills in cardboard package), and they didn't do a darn thing. It was like not taking anything at ALL. Did Merck stop making the generic version? It used to have the monopoly on Cozaar before the generic version of losartan potassium came out. ## Hello, WaterBaby! How are you? The generic that any given pharmacy carries can change regularly, depending on what manufacturer was offering the cheapest price, at the time they needed to restock their supply. I am, however, not aware of Merck having made a generic, they are just listed as making the name brand. I have been t...

Been taking 100mg Losortan along with 10mg of Amlodopine for some time now and the side effects I can no longer deal with. These pills actually made matters worse. Dr. took me off Amlodopine but truth is I had to STOP both. Slowly killing me with side effects of both. How long before the pills effects are completely out of my system? Taking Hawthorne and Grape seed extract actually works better without nasty side effects. ## I've been on 150 mg Losartan for quite a few years. I find it's no longer effective in controlling my bp. I'm curious why the dr. Took you off it and what were the side effects you were having. ## Hawthorne can take months to work...for me it helped the systolic but not the lower, the diastolic. My brother just started on losartan and I have yet to hear ...

I am traveling. I take one 5 mg of felodipine daily and one 25 mg of metoprlol daily. I accidentally forgot to bring me metoprolol. My husband in also one blood pressure meds... Could I take his 25 mg of hydrochlorothiaz in for a few days until I can get my prescription filled? My blood pressure has risen since I ran out of it. Thank for any help you can give me. ## They are not equivalent medications, and you should not switch, without medical approval. How high has your blood pressure risen? Can you call your doctor for advice? They may be able to call in a prescription for your Metoprolol to wherever you are traveling.

## My husband has been taking Hydralazine 25mg for about a month and now he mostly remains in bed, has broke out on his stomach, sides, & back. He has been experiencing tiredness, forgetfulness, and dry mouth. It's to lower his blood pressure but the side effects are not worth it and I have been putting calamine lotion on the itching and he takes benadryl. This drug is not good for you at all. ## Bennie, how is he doing? Has informed his doctor about these issues? There are other medications he can try to lower his blood pressure. It took me about a year to find some that worked for me, without making me miserable. The FDA lists the rash as being a possible allergic reaction, which could get worse with time, so he might really need to try something else. Typical side effects inc...

amlodipine 10 mg. I was put on this for periodic high blood pressure but I still feel some hypertension from time to time during the day. I am only on it about a week or so, and I see it takes 4-6 weeks to take full effect. Is this a minor side effect or a bad one and does it go away or does it mean this med is no good for me or too early to tell? ## Are you talking about the hypertension during the day? Are you actually checking your blood pressure at those times to be sure? There aren't usually any symptoms felt from high blood pressure, which is why it is often called the silent killer. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.
