Mirtazapine :: Disorientated, Saying Odd Things In Night
I'm pretty new to all of this - but, my husband was prescribed Mirtazapine and it had the most awful effect on him almost immediately. He was up in the night, very disorientated, saying odd things and he has never been the same since. I wanted the GP to report it
View 4 RepliesNorvasc (amlodipine) Causes Impotence?
I started taking Norvasc (amlodipine) six months ago because my blood pressure was too high. I didn’t really have any visible problems that I could thought of were caused by high blood pressure, but it remained high even after I started watching my sodium intake and following the DASH diet. Since I’m 52 my doctor wanted to be on the safe side and prescribed me Norvasc.
Ever since I started taking this medication I’ve started having problems and now it seems as though I’m going through erectile dysfunction because of it. I haven’t been able to maintain an erection in over a month, but my doctor doesn’t really seem to be worried about that, telling me I still need to lower my blood pressure.
Amlodipine :: Can't Feel Heartbeat In Evenings

Does anyone know whether there is anything in the literature that definitely shows amlodipine to be a definite cause of atrial fibrillation in some people? The list of side effects mentions heart arrhythmias/palpitations but I am looking for some evidence of a definite link with atrial fibrillation.

my Dr has prescribed me the GD-amlodipine atorvastatin Medicine and I have been taking this for more than a year now but I have noticed that whenever I skip it or wait for the refills, I have cough developed.
Now I don't have any medical history. He just prescribed me to prevent any future incidents looking at my family history.
I am not kind of a guy to depend on medicines on a daily basis but the DR suggests I will have to take this for the rest of my life.
Lisinopril Alternatives? Amlodipine, Candesartan Or Losartan?
I've been on BP meds for approx 6 months, and currently take Lisinopril 2.5 mg. It's working well and keeping my BP down. However, I'm fed up with the resultant dry cough. The cough isn't continuous, but annoying and disturbs my sleep. Other side effects are tinnitus, and occasionally a 'woolly' head and odd dreams.
I'm considering asking my GP to change to a different medication (not Amlodipine - tried that first).
I'd be interested to know other people's experience of Candesartan and Losartan. I've read that these drugs have fewer, but different side effects. But, also read that the two drugs are less effective.
Amlodipine :: Genetic Hypertension? White Coat Syndrome
I have been prescribed Amlodipine 5mg and more recently 10mg . I have what I consider borderline high blood pressure and possible 'white coat syndrome' as its always higher in the presence of Gp. I am suffering with swollen ankles and legs as a result of the higher dose. As I lead a fairly active life and have a healthy diet the Gp has concluded that I must have a genetically high BP ? How can this be assumed ? I have been told that whatever I do .exercise,diet , etc it will never reduce my blood pressure . Has anyone ever been advised the same?

I have been taking 10 mgs of amlodipine for approx 6 months I have recently stopped due to the following side effects muscular weakness and aching limbs and weight gain I have switched to Hawthorn berry capsules to lower my blood pressure which are available at the herbalist with no known side effects I will record my progress in a couple of months but I am convinced that the doctors of today all too readily prescribe potentially harmful drugs and quite frankly they are more interested in there big cars and enormous salaries than in the health of their patients
View 1 RepliesAtorvastatin And Amlodipine - Nausea, Muscle Pains, Kidney Pains And Total Lack Of Energy
MY GP recently prescribed Atorvastatin to deal with high(ish) cholesterol. I have been taking Amlodipine, Losartan and Bezafibrate without any problems but in the past 3 weeks since starting the statins I feel like crap - Nausea, muscle pains, kidney pains and total lack of energy.
The blurb with the statins indicated there could be problems with Amlodipine but I started taking them.
Frequent Dizzy Spells
Whenever I stand up after sitting for a few hours, I feel extremely dizzy and sometimes my vision just kinda black out and become blur for at least a few seconds. I know this is common if you have been sitting for too long. But I have it very frequently, at least 2-3 times a day. I don't used to have this last time even if I sat down for quite a long period.
I have been eating well and sleeping well. My blood pressure measures 92/62 which I suppose is in the healthy zone. My family and boyfriend said I have lost weight, but I still look the same
Anxiety :: Dizzy Spells
I was wondering if anyone else suffers from dizzy spells? I was sat down in work yesterday (I work in a bank so I stare at a screen all day) and I just couldn't look at the screen for long periods of time it made me feel quite dizzy but when I walked I was okay, was wondering if anyone else also feels like their anxiety never goes away like it feels as though there is something always there, whether it's feeling sick having a panic attack or just a feeling of unease

I have just started taking mirtazapine 15mg to help with stress and anxiety at work. The first few days were spent feeling very tired and spaced out but then not much of a side effect. However I have tried to work out a few times to help with the stress and each time have become very dizzy, headaches and nearly to the point of passing out (I'm not exactly a gym bunny but am used to working out and running 5k relatively easily- today I could only manage 3k!)
