| 1 | Postpartum hypertension | I had high bp for the first few days after giving birth, then it went down to 117/80 on avg daily after three weeks on the pill, sometimes it’s lower. I wake up dizzy, with an all over headache. Every day i have shortness of breath, leg cramps, joint pain, back pain, weakness, and shakiness. | F | 21 | 40 days 90 | 11/30/2017 | 1 | high bp and migraine | Migraine | I took a dose the first evening and woke with a migraine the next morning. None of my regular medications relieved the migraine and I ended up in the ER | F | 32 | 1 days | 6/4/2008 | 1 | hypertension | depression, fatigue, insomnia, dizziness | Drug didn't do anything for hypertension, very expensive, Dr only kept increasing dose to 90mg. This stuff is worthless and the side effects are awful. They should take it off the market. | F | 64 | 2 years | 4/22/2009 | 1 | Severe hypertension | Didn't help my HTN, still 160/100. The swelling in my ankles and hands are unbelievable. Weight gain ridiculous. I stopped taking it. | F | 52 | 4 months | 6/28/2008 | 1 | complicated migraine | Gained 25 pounds withing the first three weeks. Swollen ankels and knees, back ache, higher blood pressure, weakness, vision problems, did not stop headaches or symptoms. | would not recommend this drug or any Calcium Channel Blocker for people with complicated migraine. They do not work and complicate matters with increased blood pressure and severe headache. | F | 54 | 6 months | 6/4/2007 | 1 | Hypertension | Panic attacks lt. Headed sleepless nights | It works for awhile then it backfire on you. | F | 74 | 4 months 30mg. 1X day | 12/28/2022 | 1 | High Blood Pressure | Anxiety, neck tightness, tingly sensation through left arm, chest and neck; insomnia and trouble sleeping. | F | 35 | 3 days 30 mg 1X day | 1/17/2021 | 1 | Postpartum Preeclampsia | Extreme anxiety and panic attacks, tingling/numb feeling in hands and arms, occasionally legs and feet; swelling in hands and feet, headaches (not helped by meds), cannot relax- constant tension- clenching of jaw, knots in neck; high resting heart rate, chest pains, fatigue, dizziness when standing too quickly. | If you can, try other medications. I just got removed due to an improvement in my meds, but after two trips to the ER due to different side effects, I asked for a new med if I have to go back on them. | F | 30 | 61 days 30 1X day | 7/30/2021 | 1 | Postpartum preeclampsia | Chest pain, acid reflux, arm and leg cramps, headaches, anxious feeling, severe shortness of breath,fast heart rate and palpitations. This medicine had me feeling like I was having a heart attack or maybe a blood clot but everything always came out normal in the ED( I went so many times I lost count). | I would not recommend this medication past two weeks or so. I did not realize it was the medicine causing all of that until I did my research on it. After stopping it some symptoms went away after one day but still experienced other symptoms for some time after. I am still going through them for I just stopped the medicine 5 days ago before this post | F | 35 | 6 weeks 30 mg 1X day | 10/10/2021 | 1 | High blood pressure/preeclampsia | The worst medication on the planet. I started this medicine right before I got pregnant. At first, the anxiety, loss of appetite and palpitations started but then I found out I was pregnant so they kept me on it. I was diagnosed with ppa/ppd but was not on medication but doing therapy then I suddenly stopped thus meds and I started to feel better but then my bo went back up and I continued to the meds, this time, the panic attacks, anxiety loss of appetite, insomnia, feel like I'm dying and ended up in the ER, I just decided to goggle and I'm shocked I'm not the only one going through this ordeal. I took a dose this morning before reading the reviews, I will never take another pill of this medicine for the rest of my life. This medicine should be pulled out of the market, please stay away, it's a dangerous drug. | F | 42 | 100 days 30 mg er 1X day | 11/16/2021 | 4 | High blood pressure | Acid reflux | Has any one else been diagnosed with the gerd while taking this medication. Noticed when I forget to take medication, my acid reflux is very mild. Wanted to know if anyone else has experience this. | 57 | 15 years 90 1X day | 9/16/2020 | 1 | 0 days 1X day | 11/26/2020 |
