| 5 | hypertension | None! | I've been taking ziac for about 8 years now and have not had one side effect. Matter of fact I switched from atenolol which was horrible for me. Keeps my bp around 140/70. Very pleased. | F | 37 | 8 years | 2/19/2009 | 3 | high blood pressure | kidneys started bothering me. | I had been on ziac for 10 years and just didn't feel right anymore taking it, felt like it wasn't doing any good.
