coughing, gagging, spitting up. Not sure if this is because of the drug but haven't done this before.

I started with 5mg for 2 weeks-it did help to lower my breathing, after doctor's visit, it was increased to 10mg, I began feeling tingling on my neck, itching on arms, pain on left leg that lasted 3days-my right arm started to hurt,going to the bathroom has increased even when I'm not taking my water pills. I'm constantly thirsty. dry mouth all the time-very tired, lack of sleep while taking this medication at night, so I switched taking it in the morning instead, even if very tired still can't sleep during the day. I'm experiencing hair loss too. I will call my doctor tomorrow.Read More Read Less

This med has been very effective in controlling my BP with few side effects. The only long term side effect that I have experienced is ED.

I have been taking about 1 mo. I am on 20MG twice a day--Seems like a high dosage. EXTREME FATIGUE AND EXHAUSTION. Wake up tired-go to bed tired, and try and work in between. I plan to discuss with Dr. this week. I have been on this med before, but not very long and not with these issues. Also, I experience slight dizziness and pressure in head. It's like I have been up about 14 hours and had only 2-3 hours of sleep. I also urinate about every 2-3 hrs. at nite, which causes sleep interruption. I also drink a lot of water; therefore may lie the explanation of getting up a lot at night. When under stress, the medication doesn't seem to help very much. My BP is still high-like 154/95. I have tried several medicines and will keep hoping I'll find one that works for me. Read More Read Less

Take 5 mg. Works well. Side effects, while tolerable, include ED,lower back pain, and significantly increased frequent urination both at night and during the day. Have used for two years.
