Just wondering
Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi there, I was diognosed with high bp earlier in the year and was put on a tablet called Zemtard - 5mgs. I feel well but I do suffer from dizziness, especially for the first 2/3 hours after taking. I spoke to my GP today who explained that all BP tablets will have this side effect because I was wondering if changing brands would help? Has anyone else out there experienced this, it is really unpleasant, don't get it at all staying still but hate the feeling, I am a 57 year old lady and know that I need to lose a few pounds but am otherwise quite healthy. Many thanks.

Hi, I am taking Losartan and my Doctor has said the samething. I am not over weight, but older than you. I have always had high blood pressure when I would see my Dr. but not at other times. I think I am going to try Cosaar the brand for Losartan. I have had problems with several generic's. I take welbutrin and I know that can raise my blood pressure, but the dizzyness is caused by my Lorsartan.
I have read where several people have had the dizziness on Lorsartan.
You should ask for another blood pressure med and monitor at home. I have been on several and never had this problem. But all of us are different and can have different problems with any med.
Hope this helps.
