high blood pressure
"I was prescribed Amlodipine for high blood pressure.  It brought it down to normal.



However, the side effects were terrible: frequent urination, constipation followed 10 minutes later by uncontrollable diarrhea, blurry vision, cough, fatigue  and sleepiness.



When I would go out, I would not take the medicine.  I found out that Amlodipine was causing my problems when I took an airplane flight.  I did not take it because I did not want to go to the bathroom when we were flying.  I didn't take it for 2 days and almost all my symptoms disappeared.  I took it again and all the problems came back so I stopped taking it.



O was put on Clonidine and that did not lower my BP but gave me a cough and sleepiness."
