avapro hct side effects

It can lower your blood pressure and may increase some of the side effects of Avapro. Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes while you are taking Avapro, unless your doctor has told you to. To be sure this medication is helping your condition, your blood pressure will need to be checked on a regular basis. Keep using this medication even if you feel fine. High blood pressure often has no symptoms.

I have a long family history of heart disease and have high blod pressure (taking avapro) and gerd(taking protonix) I have noticed a frequency in the pvc's since i started the avapro and protonix. Do i need to do any further testing? Do you think that these pvc's are increasing do to the meds? Thanks so much!

The medication prescribed to me is Avapro HCT 150mg/12.5mg (Irbesartan and hydrochlorothiazide) taken once daily (1 tablet) mainly to help ensure the blood pressure remains under 140 systolic, which is believed to help reduce the pressure on the aorta and root. I am booked in for a second opinion with another cardiologist next week mainly to re-assure myself and my wife (and kids) that things are chugging along okay.

I've been on Benicar HCT 40/12.5 for 3 years, it's the only BP med I've been on and it has worked wonders with no side effects. My BP is down to 110/70 from 150/90 and as I said, I have had absolutely no side effects to date. For me, it's a great med, but maybe not for you. There are many to choose from, just keep working with your doctor to find the one that works best for your situation.

My 90 day average BP is 108/67 down from 135/85 when I started. I have had no side effects as well, the best of both worlds!

You may experience dizziness, lightheadedness, blurred vision, or tiredness as your body adjusts to the medication. You may also experience diarrhea, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, or cough. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: unusual thirst, weakness, confusion, fainting, fast heartbeat, decreased sexual ability.

If you have question, discuss it with your pharmacist, and your doctor, esp. if you are having side effects of unusual symptoms.

I did consult with an Ayurvedic Doctor, who prescribed some compounds, non toxic, no side effects. They usually go to the root cause, and will prescribe more than one compound since all systems are involved or most. Mine did prescribe some, but I can't remember which ones. It worked, but I became allergic and stopped. Meanwhile, I am seeing a Medical Qi Gong practitioner, lost 25 lbs in two months, and keep loosing water. I am no longer puffy and water logged.

I am pretty constipated sometimes even after as much water I drink. I have been reading alot on the diovan hct side effects and come to find out that all of my problems are from it. I am going to have to find a new bp medicine. I sincerely thank you for your time to reply.

Vet is suggesting epogen but I have read Epogen can have side effects and can quit working for an animal anywhere from 1-4 months of treatment. I am enquiring about an iron supplement to try first instead of injections, b/c her HCT has not follow under 20 as of yet . Vet said it was not at crucial stage as of yet so would an iron supplement be ok to try right now , of course with the ok of her vet ?

amlodipine, Victrelis (boceprevir) Boceprevir may increase the blood levels and effects of amLODIPine. This can increase the risk of serious side effects such as irregular heart rhythm, fluid retention, swelling, heart failure, and excessively low blood pressure. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications.

I am on Benicar HCT 40/20 mg as well, it is a great drug and has almost no side effects. You make it sound like you may be having some anxiety attacks as a result of your experience. One of the things you get with anxiety attacks is a release of adrenaline which can cause flushing on the face, back and upper torso, it's very common and most likely causing your issue. Try to stay calm and mention the anxiety to your doctor as they can treat that with meds as well.

I am very chilled and body aches. Has anyone else on this treatment had these side effects and what did your doctor advise. I go see my doctor at the transplant center Friday. Thanks so much.

I hope the doctor has a plan to monitor that. The other things are just the residual side effects of an ablation. Not fun but neither is the arrhythmia. Hope you feel better soon.

Hi, I had a second ablation about 9 months ago and it apparently was successful because I have been in normal sinus rhythm since then. the problem I'm experiencing is with my heart rate. since the ablation proceedure my heart rate elevated to 100-110 bpm. my EP prescribed cardizem cd and it is keeping it under control now. the side effects are what's causing me problems. my toes and lower legs are feeling numb.

I was wondering about the progression of side effects during treatment, if the sides are mild during the first few weeks do they stay mild or can the sides get increasingly worse during the duration? I am now on week 4 of interferon/ribavirin for 24 weeks. I have heard things get more difficult and was wondering what to expect. I understand the sides can really vary from person to person. When do blood counts typically drop? This riba rash I keep hearing about when does that typically show up?

Also, may want to look into your lab reference ranges on the HGB/HCT- I believe the min. is 39 HCT and 12 HGB.

I want to go off norpace and try ternormin again since that is the first medication I was on when this first started in 1981. I was on tambacor until after the ablation but had a lot of side effects from it. My doctor says he thinks I am okay since I have had nothing but pvc's since the ablation and then only when potassium was low or blood pressure was too high. I am very concerned about the blood pressure and my resting heart rate is 54 to 60. It is not under any control at all.

Rash is mainly on left eye and one spot on cheek, small rash on right eye. I do sleep on left side. Other med is Avapro for HBP and I have been on that for 2 years. Thank you!

Keep in mind I am not a doctor. Medications all have side effects. You need to talk to your doctor and see if he could somehow cut your long list of meds down to a narrower field. also your trainer should also know that when you have what we call stomach flab, as you lose weight this skin takes longer to tighten because the weight of the fat cells causes sag initially makeing it harder to lose weight in our mid sections.

Hey all...Has anyone had chest and throat tightness as a side? Is it possibly a sign of worsening anemia? I'm due on Wed to get next labs done. (1 week since last ones that showed a sudden drop in HCT, WBC, and slighly in HGB..) Anemia sides still the same..(Out of breath, heart palpitations, fatigue with minimal activity, occasional dizzies, etc...)...Should I move up lab draw? (Starting week #4...first vl Wed!) I'm confident it isn't a heart attack or anxiety...

I have had very little side effects after that first week of treatment. My new blood test show that my ALT 330(H) and my AST 235(H) have gone down but my viral load really is down 60.5 % it is now 222,000. Would you consider that promising after just four weeks?

I have Crohn's disease and after a week of bloody diarrhea my HGB was 14.9 my HCT 44.5 and my RBC 4.68. Also ESR and CRP normal. I had a CBC and now my HGB is 16.6 HCT 46.4 RBC 4.90 and ESR of 5mm/hr. Does that mean that my drop in cbc was from losing blood rather than iron or b12/folate deficiency since now that bleeding resolved i have good values? Also i had total cholesterol of 219 but my triglycerides was 71! Is this fat malabsorption?

Hopefully, your reaction was not due to the drugs,and that the ill effects you experienced can be chalked up to coincidental timing with your first dose. Good luck on your next attempt.
