User Reviews for irbesartan oral

Severe muscle pain in my left arm about 30 minutes after I take it. Lasts for hours. We have lowered the dosage to see if that would help. I’m just switching bp meds altogether. I need my rest and this arm pain is ridiculous.

Dr started me with highest dose. After 60 days started feeling dizzy and weak from both legs. Was getting muscle soreness on my left arm running from neck to wrist. Stopped taking meds all side effects disappeared. Attempted again with half pill and the muscle soreness returned. Will try homeopathic remedies.

I was on iberstartan 75 mg . Then the doctor Raised it to 150 mg for the last 6 months as my blood pressure went high .my eyesight started going blurred . My right leg for months was aching and the last month muscles in my lower back and legs were aching came off 4 days ago and eyesight better and no pain

I have been on 75 mg and had no side effect till my blood pressure went high and I was put on 150 mg - all my muscles in my back and legs hurt couldn’t walk .

HAIRLOSSS

i was put on ibersartan when valsartan was recalled. shortly thereafter I developed severe heartburn and hair loss. I didnâ??t realize Ibersartan was causing it but after recently switching to another blood pressure med the heartburn and hair loss stopped.

This medication is not good for me because it makes me dizzy, headaches, tired and wants to sleep, it doesn’t ?lower my blood pressure. I keep waiting for improvement, but none after taking it for 10 days the pressure is still 158/95. I going to see doctor again in 10 days if no charge I will be asking for another medication.

Severe itching with this medicine

Started taking this medication about the time of the recall. It works better than any other BP medications I have taken so I opted to continue taking it. No side effects and BP around 120/70 consistently.

I have taken the highest dose of this drug and it has had zero effect on my blood pressure.

Starting BP was 180/110 at times. Was started on metoprolol which was still giving me readings up around 160/100. I was switched to Irbesartan a few months ago and it's been very effective on its own. I get readings around 110/68 and have had no side effects. I am currently on the highest dosage but my readings are low enough, I'll be starting to cut it in half.

im taking metrprolol with ibasartan so I need to check with my dr about interactions

seemed to have less side effects from others Ive tried,yet still needed to up the dose. Now on top dose not only have my muscles started to ache, I have itchy eyes, sore gums and my hair has started to fall out. Im off to Docs this wk and off these tabs forever.

upset stomach, bad taste in mouth, cough. the bad taste stays most of the time

FOR THE FIRST TWO WEEKS IT LOOKED OK, BUT AFTER THAT MY MUSCLES BECAME WEAK AND PAINFUL, I WALK FEELING PAIN IN MY LEGS AND HAVE NO ENERGY. WILL GO TO THE DOCTOR TO CHANGE THIS MED.

Within one month of starting irbesartan, my hair started falling out and continued to do so until I stopped taking it and went back to my brand name drug. Upon stopping irbesartan, my hair grew back in.

I was taking 150 mg and it was increased by 75 mg to 225 and I think my hair is falling out! Anyone else have such a problem!!!

Quickly brought BP down, have cut pill into three and BP is 125/80,I am 71. HOWEVER,I am having severe discomfort with burning sensations in arms and chest,weird feelings,like skin on fire,have lost lots of energy. Am meeting with the Specialist to discuss,maybe I can go off meds totally?? Three Months on.

THIS MAKES MY THROAT FELL LOCKED UP AT WHEN I TRY SWALLOW BEEN ON IT TWO WEEKS SO FAR
