| 2 | Hypertension | I took half of a 10 MG tablet every morning along with the Atenolol I am already on. I had to stop taking the medication after just 13 days due to a severe dry cough that developed, accompanied by dizziness, drowsiness, and headache. I was very disappointed, as the medication kept my blood pressure well controlled. | F | 49 | 13 days 5 MG 1X day | 2/25/2016 | 2 | High Blood Pressure | Dry cough at first, then gagging to the brink of vomiting. Switched to Hyzaar (Losartan-HCTZ), it was worse after 2 tabs. | Worked great until dry coughing started. It did drop my BP to normal levels. | M | 56 | 20 days 12.5 MG 1X day | 1/6/2011 | 3 | hypertension | My blood pressure went down in about three weeks, but I began to cough after about a week and eventually coughed so much and so hard my ribs were sore. I've stopped taking it. | I have read in some sources that a cough in these circumstances is often accompanied by other problems that are not so obvious. I'm no expert, but it's worth asking your doctor about if you have a cough from this medication and s/he recommends you continue it anyway. | F | 65 | 3 months | 12/17/2007 | 1 | high blood pressure | dry, hacking cough - often to the point of dizziness or vomiting | F | 41 | 5 months | 2/8/2005 | 2 | High Blood Pressure | No side effects but it did not lower my blood pressure. | M | 46 | 7 months | 7/13/2004 | 3 | High blood pressure | This medicine was really effective at lowering my bp but I switched to a different medicine because I couldn't handle the COUGHING. I've been on this for 2 years, and the cough creeps up on you. At first it's just a little cough, then builds over time to a dry (no phlegm!) hacking cough that you feel a tickle in your throat that won't ever go away. I was coughing so much and so intensely that I would accidentally vomit if I ate recently, or gag. | F | 34 | 2 years 20 mg 1X day | 11/15/2016 |
