Quinipril

Is it O.K. to take Quinipril and Avalide together?

I was told there could be a problem taking Quinipril and Avalide at the same time on a consistent basis because they are basically in the same class. Any truth to this? ## Is it ok to take magnesium while also taking quinipril? ## Yes, usually, you should take one or the other, though you may be able to take other blood pressure and cardiac medications, at the same time, according to FDA reports. Barb, it really depends on your blood pressure levels, since the FDA warns that Magnesium may also lower it, and cause drowsiness. How are you both doing?

has teva stopped making blood pressure pill quinipril. I miss it and Walgreens no longer carries it. My new pill isnt workiing.

after i quit using teva quinpril pill and was placed on another generic brand my blood pressure started going up and down and my heart felt extremely tired. I only wish I knew where to go to get the long brown blood pressure pill from teva. Please answer me. Is the pill acturally off market? ## I don't see anything listed about Teva discontinuing this product on the FDA site that usually reports such information. Have you tried asking the pharmacy if they can order it in for you? Another question is how long have you been taking it? If you've been on the same dosage for a long period of time, your body may have just gotten used to it and you may require a dosage adjustment.
