For High Blood Pressure “I was on this drug for many years. I took the 4mg dose 2 X and sometimes 3 X a day, without any problems. I did get skin sensitivity but that is genetic as my daughter also has it. I found the drug more effective taken with diuretic -Bendroflumethiazide up to 5 mg daily – but this caused gout eventually.To be honest this is a good drug, given that I’ve tried many combinations of blood pressure medicines.”

For High Blood Pressure “I have no evident side effects. However, I get flushed very quickly when I am out in the sun, even for the shortest time period. I seem to burn faster also.”
