Hydralazine 25mg Tablet

## 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...

I currently take 25mg of Hydralazine Hydrochloride morning and evening to lower my blodd pressure. Can I take viagra? ## You should consult your doctor, before doing so, because it is really going to depend on your blood pressure readings.

Just realized that I took Hydralazine 25mg three hours apart when it's supposed to be taken every eight hours. ## Took my 100 mg hydralazine at 3:30 and when I went to take my metformin and Lisinopril instead of grabbing Lisinopril took another hydralazine instead 6:30 , should I be concerned and should I take my Lisinopril or wait until bedtime when I usually take my other hydralazine ? ## Can I take 100 mg hydralazine 7 hours apart before the next dose. ## Taking an extra dose of Hydralazine within 3 hours may result in more lowering of your blood pressure than usual, and additional side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and increased urination. If you feel extremely faint, or dizzy, you should consult a medical professional. Theoretically, you should be okay, but ther...

I take hydralazine 25mg. or metoprolol 50mg. for high bp Both cause extreme dizziness so I can't function. Is there anything I can take that does not do this? Please help as this is ruiningnmy life. I am 83 years old & haave severe kidney disease, diabetes, & copd. ## So you do you take both, or do you take one or the other as you can get them, or they are available? If you aren't taking medications consistently on a regular basis, that could be contributing to the problem, since dizziness can be a typical side effects, according to FDA reports, and it may take 4 to 5 weeks for you body to get used to them and for such side effects to taper off and go away. What other medications are you taking?

I'm 68, no one so far can control my blood pressure. 244/161 the highest so far. Just left hospital for three days. At my request, doctor gave me Cloraz Dipot to ease my anxiety of taking blood pressure, and taking the new medicine. My other medicine made me sick, ended up calling 911. My problem? I can't tell I took Cloraz. Shouldn't I? It's 3.7mg. Will taking two hurt? I take: Lisinopril, 20mg. once a day Metoprolol tart, 50mg, twice daily Hydralazine 25mg, three times daily for bl. pressr. And it's still just as high at times. They don't know what to do. Sent me home. To die? You think? Any help? They say my heart is fine. Had stress test, etc. At St. Anne's hospital. Thank you.
