5 | High Blood Pressure | none | M | 31 | 3 years | 5/30/2005 | 1 | hypertension | systolic number worsened with tarka. tried 2/240mg...didnt work so we tried 4/240mg and bp was even worse. I wouldnt reccommend to anyone. | F | 33 | 20 days | 5/2/2005 | 1 | hypertension | Joint pain, reduced sex drive, impotence. Lotension worked as well, with no side effects. My Doctor fell victim to the savvy talk of a drug salesman. Even driving a car became a chore due to joint pain, and doing yard work was impossible | M | 42 | 80 days | 4/24/2005 | 2 | Hypertention | Joint pain, reduced sex drive. This medicine reduced my BP to on average 160/85. Did nothing for the top number, but reduced the bottom. | I have never experienced joint pain or back pain except very rarely until taking Tarka. | F | 53 | 10 months | 4/18/2005 | 1 | mild hypertension | joint pain, impotence | Doctor said I was diabetic (A1c never over 5) and changed to this. Doesn't control my BP even at double dose (2-240 bid), too strong a diuretic element, and impotence at age 53. Firing the Doc and going back to Tenormin or Tenoretic - they worked. | M | 53 | 2 years | 4/5/2005 | 2 | hypertension | dry coughing started the same day i started it | F | 34 | | 1/14/2005 | 1 | high blood pressure/migraines | awareness of heart pounding, rapid pulse, almost manic feelings and blood pressure did not drop | I have been on a beta blocker for a long time and I was taken off it and put on this. I think I was experiencing withdrawal from beta blocker, which I am now back on and feel much more like myself. | F | 41 | 8 weeks | 11/20/2004 |
