User Reviews for Tekturna oral

1back pain and my bp has not went lower. At times I get very tired. I do not recommend this drug. I been taking this drug for about 2 Years and nothing is happening. I just took myself off this drug. Im just going to lose weight.

I STILL TAKE 6 MORE BLOOD PRESSURE PILLS TO HELP

It took nine months and 9 different meds before my bp is controlled. The tekturna 300+hct has brought it down from 180/100 to 117/67 in 3 mo. Only side effects experienced have been an unproductive cough and occ pain in kidney area, as well as decreased libido. It is expensive--$3+/day, as compared to the generics, which run $10/for 3 mo. I'm hoping to be able to decrease dosage to 150mg in a month or so.

Taking as part of regime for kidney failure, hypertension and insulin dependent diabetes. Has been effective in reducing creatine and cleance rate.

After first dose, I was in a hazy, dopey state; co-workers wanted to take me to the ER! My Dr. cut the dose in half, which alleviated the fugue state but left me with unusual daily fatigue, and then came the diarrhea or the constant urgue to go to the bathroom. My BP came down but not enough to stay on this medication! After five days, I requested to be taken off and I was switched to another drug without these crazy side effects.

Have been on 150 dose for 6 weeks. Works OK; bad taste in mouth. Otherwise, it's OK.

This drug has no sexual side effects. Lowered my blood pressure. I been on this medicine for almost a year now. Have taken Lisinprol, Lotrel, Benicar and few other BP medicines but this one is the best. This medicine is expensive but good. If you are having sexual problems with other drugs ask your doctor to prescribe you this medication. Good Luck

This has brought my blood pressure down, however, in just the 2 short days I've taken it, my hands and ankles have blown up like a blow fish! Will call my Dr and alert them.

At my doctors office I was in a test program with this drug and experienced very positive results.

i have used this medication for (5) years. and my blood pressure stays normal. I have had no side effects from this medication

No side effects for me.

Have had eye problems for a month, fatigue and weight gain. Didn't realize it was probably from this drug...no other possibilities, will be seeing Dr. soon.

I have taken 150mg for 1 1/2 yrs then got sick & BP couldn't be controlled. Went from 150mg, to 300mg till now on 600mg 1x daily. This was 1st BP w/no reactions for 1 1/2yr. Now I can't even step outside if it's to hot and humid. I fight big time dizzy spells, nausea so bad I don't eat enough and my stomach itches too dang much. My hair has begun to fall out since going to 600mg. I was very hopeful in the beginning , but now I can't walk w/out holding a cane I 'm so afraid of how quickly I get hit,sweats,dizzy,nausea,complete feeling ill. I've stopped driving for fear I will get sick and injure people. It's no fun. Toss in nausea Meds and my day is shot. I just started getting what Dr said is a high BP headaches. I thought clusters they hurt that bad. Back of head feels like I've been hit w/baseball bat. Read More Read Less

In the begining i experienced some itching in the arm pit area, and stomach. loose stool and frequent urination follow after a couple of weeks. i take this med with 8 others. I see no effect but the itching.

My experience I feel has not been too effective. Have been put on 2 more HBP's along with Tekturna. Too many meds. added due to not being effective.
