Anyone taking Zestril 10mg tablets for blood pressure? How's it going?
I've been prescribed Zestril 10mg tablets for high blood pressure and I'm curious to hear from others who are taking it. How long have you been on it? Have you noticed any improvements in your blood pressure? Has anyone experienced any side effects? I've been reading about a persistent cough as a side effect, and I'm wondering how common this actually is. Looking forward to hearing your experiences and tips!
I've been on Zestril for a year and a half now, and I've had zero side effects so far. My blood pressure is under control, and I feel great.
Zestril saved my life after my heart attack last year. I was in a bad way, and the doctors said it helped my heart recover better. No major side effects for me, just a bit of dizziness sometimes.
I've been on Zestril for about 6 months now, and it's been working great for me. My blood pressure is much more controlled. I did have a bit of a dry cough at first, but it went away after a few weeks. I've also noticed I get a bit dizzy sometimes, but it's manageable.
Dizziness is no joke, guys. Be careful when getting up from sitting or lying down. Give your body time to adjust, especially when you first start taking it.
I've been on Zestril for a while and I can confirm the cough is not fun. I ended up switching to a different medication because of it. Also, make sure to stay hydrated while on this because it can affect your kidneys.
Sounds like the side effects can be a bit rough. I'm on something similar and it's important to regularly check in with your doctor about how you're feeling.
