Unfortunately this video sounds more like you're talking to fellow doctors. Most people don't know what category their blood pressure medicine falls in.

on Telmisarfan, zero side effects. Amlodipine was a nightmare, swelled like a balloon. 😂

They all make me sooooo fatigued that I couldn’t function. After 3 months I had to come off of them because I couldn’t tolerate the quality of life I had with losartan. I’m on Amlodipine and Diltiazem.

I take metoprolol and am wondering if it's what's causing my hip and hand tendon pain (along with significant weight gain).

My cardiologist started me on Toprol XL 25 that is a beta blocker that you don’t like. He also started me on low dose aspirin and 5mg Amlodipine and I started taking both of them and I am already on Lisinopril 10mg and have been for over a year. I do have coronary artery disease and started on Repatha that I like much better than the statin Lipitor I was taking. After reading all the side effects I am having a hard time starting when blood pressure is under control. I watch all your videos and just noticed in this video that you also don’t like beta blockers. If I need to take it I will definitely take it but am just uneasy about it. My doctor said it was to help the heart and very little to do with blood pressure.

Lisinopril is awful for me. It makes me feel dizzy when running. I need to go back with my PCP, and discuss another medication.

Losartan worked very well for me personally, however, I was prescribed Spironolactone for hair loss and hormonal acne, which lowered my BP too much so I had to discontinue Losartan. So far, so good!

This was very difficult to understand; simple prescription names would help GREATLY.

I have no idea what you just said 😆 I was recently put on losartan 50mg for hbp due to stress and flu meds and Sudafed 🥴 since starting I can’t sleep well, have vivid dreams and heart rate increase and major headaches. Worst 3 weeks ever since I started 😭 thoughts on this?
