Sadly every medication comes with the risk of side effects. I have had numerous reactions to medications and my physicians and I have discuss the side effects and we decide if the risk is worth the side effects which can be frustrating. The medication I have a hard time taking is Procardia ER because it results in headaches, flushness and overall feel horrible but right now it’s the only one that effectively keeps my heart rate regulated. Without it my heart rate runs 150’s but now it runs 90’s which is still high but I can tolerate the side effects on the lower dose. I encourage you to keep talking with you doctor and trying to find the right medication or the right dose that you can tolerate. I pray you find the answer soon.

How’s it going with the olmesartan?
